Tonight we joined Josie to help at the Jewellery Quarter Cemmetry. The task was remove all the leafs and dirt from the sides of the path, using our plastic 'jazz hands'!
We filled up many bags, then we got a good weights workout lifting then up the hill to the compost area.
Once done Josie and our walker Amy took the tools back, whilst Calum, James and Jonny went on a 5k run. We ran up the hill to join the canal on the Soho Loop, before running along it to Brindley Place and back to 1000 Trades, for a nice total of around 5k.

Calum Upton (he/him) earned their community cape by completing their first community mission.
Calum completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Calum was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.

It was a nice morning for helping out at the Hill Hook Nature Reserve in Sutton Coldfield this morning.
It was great to meet Calum on his first GG Community Mission, who had cycled over from Five Ways and to see regulars Rachel and Charlotte at the the task.
The first task was cutting back all the brambles which was done in double quick time, even before Jonny arrived, who had been smashing out a Sutton Park Parkrun PB, before running across to the nature reserve after.
Next task was moving an invasive plant species, which could be spotted by it's slightly white leafs. After that it was more cutting back and trimming.
