10 Goodgymmers met up at The Showroom Cinema. Sharsm welcomed everyone. A big Welcome to Lesley who we have not seen for a very long time. He says he will start coming more often now that he is back in Sheffield. We all ran up to meet up with Craig who was waiting for us at the junction of Cricket Inn Road and Maltravers Road. Craig then explained to us the main task of 'Litter Picking' and gave us tools, gloves, bin bags,etc...We all then split up in various directions and worked in pairs. There were lots of rubbish including cans and bottles which made the bin bags heavier than expected. Altogether we collected 13 Full Bin Bags. Gerry then gave us biscuits as a treat. Thank you Gerry and she also ran with us from the Showroom and back again with us. A great team with cooperation, chats and worked hard. Thank you all who supported this organization.

A new task for us this week. We headed up, up and away to Arbourthorne to meet with Angela at the fantastic Arbourthorne Community Primary School.

We had some lovely sunset views over Sheffield as we meandered our way up high over the Steel City to our destination for the eve.

We had a new runner this week also, a big GG welcome to Jenny.

Once on site we heard from Angela about the tasks that we to be done which included:

• Trimming down some cut tree branches and moving them
• Moving woodchip in preparation for planting

We got straight to it, filling bags and wheelbarrows full of woodchip and lopping back the branches of the felled tree.

The tasks seemed just about right with us getting through all the woodchip pile and the felled tree branches.

We were thanked by Angela and even offered biscuits for our troubles.

What goes up, must come down so we headed downhill to finish our run and I am sure we will be back in the future to help out again soon!
