It was one of the hottest evenings of the year but the heatwave didn't deter seven magnificent GoodGymers from running, walking or cycling up the steep hill that leads to the Ridgway. It was good to be back after our visit in May and this time we set to work trimming back a large tree, transplanting a shrub, spreading mulch and doing some weeding. Maggie and her husband kindly supplied juice and ice creams, which ensured there were no meltdowns. We look forward to returning in August.

Local residents have done a sterling job in transforming this area outside the telephone exchange, but they are always in need of a helping hand. Six of us GoodGymers were tasked with laying down cardboard on cleared areas, filling barrows with woodchip and then spreading it on top. Refreshed by glasses of pomegranate juice served by Maggie, we soon transformed the area and were rewarded with a downhill run on the way home!
