There was a good turn out from GoodGym to join the People's Park Litter Pick this morning, and despite the recent good weather the park wasn't too bad for litter. With the sun shining through the clouds, it was a lovely way to spend an hour so at the start of the weekend. With such a big group it was easy to get the park cleaned up, and by pairing up we were able to sort the litter from recyclables. We are always on the look out for unusual items, and GoodGymer Petros was pleased to find a petrol strimmer that had been discarded under one of the trees.
Well done team, we left the park looking prim (or strim) and proper, and clear of "party balloons" and sharps, tidy and safe for families to relax in over the weekend.

Another successful litter pick in People's Park, teaming up with the Friends group to make a total of 11 people helping to pick 10 general bags of rubbish, 8 bags of recycling, discarded scooters 🛴🛴, fencing and pillows out of the park.

It was also the first session for Patrick so well done and welcome to the team!

We had a good team out this morning to support the Friends of People's Park with their monthly litter pick, and it was lovely to welcome Petros Teklayi for his first ever GoodGym task. He teamed up with Lee and they were soon headed off into the trees to locate rubbish and recycling. Gill managed to grab the most interesting find of the day - a rather salubrious sports car , and although it was missing two wheels Lucie took a shine to it, and decided this was her new car! She and Dani headed off across the meadow, and Gill and Anthony went through the orchard and up and over towards Pope's meadow. Rachel joined with the Friends to keep things clean near the park area. We left the park looking neat and tidy and ready to welcome weekend visitors. Well done team. We hope that Petros has enjoyed his first foray into GoodGym and that he'll join us in many more missions.

3 Goodgymers ( plus Duncan’s surprise visit ) joined friends of people’s park on Saturday morning for monthly litter pick . Together we managed to collect over 10 bags of waste plus a TV

It was a decently large turnout for the monthly people's park litterpick in spite of the light rain showers. Five from GoodGym joined another bunch of Friends of the Park and out we went across the park and over the hill searching for the litter dropped by local park users over the last few weeks.

Altogether we got about 15 bags of litter plus a DVLA car clamp and left the park spotless for the weekend visitors.

2 Luton Goodgymers supported The Friends of Peoples Park with their monthly litterpick . As ever, many obscure finds and lot of good work done to collect around 20 bags of litter. The walk in the sunshine was nice and definitely made it worthwhile. Well done team, great job
