Boxing Clever

Tuesday 19th November

Written by Lisa W

Today we made up 21 individual crates out back in the small food cupboard at All Saint's, space is tight so some nifty footwork was required! I'm pleased to report our supply of stock was pretty much on target.

Shut that door ๐Ÿšช

Tuesday 19th November

Written by Yvonne Hawley (She/her)

Packing down after the food bank ๐Ÿฅซ involved the usual stock reordering, lids back on, putting everything back in the cupboard. Then it was time to โ€œShut that door!โ€ until next week.๐Ÿšช

Shift work!

Sunday 17th November

Written by Judy Knapp

Today we litter-picked in two shifts:

Shift 1 was Katie CR, Louisa & Judy - successfully clearing litter from Car Park 2 at Farlington Marshes.

Shift 2 was Yvonne, Judy and new GG member Lisa . Lisa has previously joined us for a beach clean, but this was her first official task, already wearing the GG t shirt (give her a cheer!) We cleared Car Park 1.

Result: some thank-yous from Sunday walkers, and 2 bags & a purple bucket of recycling, as well as several huge bags of rubbish.

Well done, shift workers!

Baby steps add up!

Thursday 14th November

Written by Laura Wells

An excellent turnout for a quick lunchtime litter pick in Milton Park, and on what turned out to be a beautiful autumnal day!

Babies were definitely the theme today as we had mini GG-er Aida join us, we bumped into my week-old niece in the park (small world Portsmouth), and found a baby's dummy (or maybe a sweetie dummy thingy!)!

Extra kudos to Jane and Yvonne who fought tooth and nail to clear the difficult bits of litter stuck behind the fence by the bus stop/library, with the help of the extra long pickers!

A little early for the Xmas stockings!

Friday 15th November

Written by Dave M

A lovely mild morning stroll around Kingston Rec provided a load of rubbish!

We completed a full circuit of the park and couldn't fit any more litter away.

There were 6 socks (inc an actual pair!), although I don't think Santa will be round to fill them just yet! A pair of pants, 1 Croc shoe and a lovely Nike jacket found on our travels. A sprig of Holly added to the festive feel!

A couple of vapes and a lighter for someone still kicking it old school.

Our awesome mini-GGer let us know when it was time to stop and head off in search of lunch!!
