On a Bank Holiday Mon we set off from The Showroom to meet the FANTASTIC Jess of REGATHER & Common Thread fame to help REGATHER with a big steaming pile of wood chip that needed spreading around Club Garden a lovely community space used for and by the community.

On arrival Jess talked us through the task options for the evening and got us tooled up with rakes and gloves.

Filmon and Tom got straight into the big steaming pile of wood chip and spread it far and wide to ensure the surrounding trees and soil were feeling equally loved and nourished!

Annie got to clearing one of the planted areas and Jess was on with various tasks including litter picking, sweeping and wood chip donut creation around the trees.

After a descent session the area was looking a lot better for some GG love. We packed down and made our ways home under a very threatening looking raincloud which just about stayed away.

Until next time, happy running :)

A big GG welcome to Solomon who joined us for his first run tonight. Thanks to Annie for introducing Solomon to the group. We hope to see you on another run sometime soon!

This week we were meeting Karen and her crew in Burngreave for some more litter picking action.

The streets were busy with people celebrating Eid so there was a lovely atmosphere in the area, however there was also a lot of litter to be had!

We got tooled up thanks to Karen and headed up hill in search of litter, which we didn't need to go far to find.

After not much time at all our bags were full and it was time to head back.

It was so nice to have more light and finish in the daylight, more of this to come!

Until next time, happy running! :)

5 Goodgymmers met up at Regather and met uo with lovely,. cheery Jess. She gave specific instructions as to what to do and were given gloves and Black Bin Bags, and pickers too to do our tasks of litter picking around the area. We had head torches too and Celine brought the Big Goodgym Torch which was very useful for our Dark Task. After the task we were given hot drinks and lots of lovely, yummy snacks. We then took the 2 full bins of Rubbish into the garage and Jess shows us around.
