We were at Christ Church Moldgreen last night to remove a load of sticks from the churchyard. Following the removal of various small trees and shrubs by GoodGym last summer a large pile of sticks had been created. Our job last night was to break down and shift as many of these as we could into the brown garden waste bins.

Many hands make light work and fortunately we had six pairs to help. It was nice to welcome GoodGym first timers Maha El Nasser and Deni to the crew along with old timers Kati Law, Louise Galvin and David Bilton. Well done team, once again we proved we can get some great results when we stick at a task!

After a great run along the canal we met up with Faith at Christ Church. She provided us with tools and we set about weeding a path. An hour later the path was weed free so we tidied up and had a shorter run back along Kilner Woods to the Stadium. Thank you to Louise for the photos and report title.

On an unseasonably warm evening, three GoodGymmers ran 4K to help spruce up the churchyard at Christ Church, Moldgreen. We ran along Kilner Bank on the way there and back through Rawthorpe on the return leg. David and Ben tackled some stumps that needed to be removed and I pruned back some ivy which was swamping a tree. Thank you to David for the report title, and Ben for the photos.

4 GoodGymmers, 1 headtorch and very wet and windy conditions didn't stop us continuing our ongoing task to remove unwanted shrubs and trees from the Christ Church yard in Moldgreen last night.

Following a few visits over the summer we are now down to the toughest task of digging out the most resistant roots and stumps.

Despite only having one headtorch between us (mental note- the dark nights are definitely back!) Ben Godfrey, Louise Galvin, Zena Whalley and I got busy with spades, saws and crowbar for what felt like a proper winter workout.

Digging out roots and extreme pruning were on the menu of hard labour for tonights GoodGym.

However a little hard work doesn't phase Alison Cottam and we got well stuck in to our ongoing project of keeping the churchyard at Christ Church looking good.

We've been filling brown bins again at Christ Church, Moldgreen. In our ongoing mission to clear the thicket in the churchyard, 7 GoodGymmers cut, chopped, weeded, dug and swept to improve the churchyard for the Reverend Charlotte and her congregation.

Well done and thanks to Kati Law, Ben Godfrey, Louise Galvin, Zena Whalley, David Bilton and Alison Cottam forctheir efforts. Extra thanks to Ben for being the photographer and jumping up and down on the wheelue bins!
