First task of the evening involved everyone! We had to move three water tanks to the other side of the garden. World's strongest GoodGymer (Ivar) moved one on his own and then the other two needed everyone, not that they had a metal frame and water in or anything!

Next on the list was moving some wooden pallets and then moving part of the compost pile onto them. And then the final task was digging and an area where the 100 sunflowers are going to be planted. We can't wait to see how great that looks later in the year.

After a quick tidy up of tools and a group photo it was time to head back to Glass Mill.

I'm stumped

A small but mighty group gathered at Glass Mill (and Steve at the arranged meeting point) ready to tackle whatever post-driving threw at us.

First, a big congratulations to Alison for ticking off her 100th good deed. It's been wonderful to have you onboard and getting stuck into every task in the rain or shine!!

It was a longer run this eve which involved multiple very very straight long roads but once we arrived and after a demo from Eva it was time to start post-driving.

It involved quite a few people and avoiding of the head of the person holding the bottom of the tree. We successfully managed to tick off a lot of trees on our map without incident.

It was a very good core work out and hopefully everyone wasn't too achy the next day!!

Thanks to Julian for leading the group back once I'd hit my distance limit for running (pesky ankle).

See you all next week for Seniors.

Another week, another GG task - this week we were heading to The Albany to help in the garden. The team at The Albany have been focusing on the garden and making the best use of the space. Our tasks for the evening were to level out the compost pile and a litter pick of the garden. The litter gets blown in by the wind and also the foxes spread it around the garden.

We split into groups to tackle the different tasks and then got to work!

If anyone remembers the giant compost pile from our last visit, it was nearly as tall as most of us and was not easy to maintain. Luckily most of that had been cleared before we arrived so we had the task of leveling out what remained. Hopefully next time we visit there will be some dedicated compost bays!!

The litter team did a wonderful job of collecting 5+ bags of litter! One group I couldn't drag away from a pile of litter, that's definitely a better position to be in than no one wanting to litterpick.

Well done to everyone - we made a huge difference last night! Next week we are heading to Hither Green to do some tree care and post-driving.

We gathered at Glass Mill with the excitement of clearing the basement at Lewisham Unity building, nearly the same level of excitement as when we cleared the basement at Seniors!! After a quick warm up we were on our way to Lewisham Unity, it's a long straight run, there's is an option to go through Ladywell Fields but it adds on a bit of distance.

We made it past all the kebab shops making us feel hungry to find there was a meditation session happening and we wouldn't be clearing the basement...but there were lots of leaves to clear in the garden.

Not to be deterred by the change in task, the team got stuck in and soon there were bags and bags full of leaves! And also sticks neatly piled next to the skip.

Great work everyone, especially with a change of task!
