Three Lewisham GG’rs litter picked in different bits of the borough - Jacqueline in Beckenham Place Park, Adi in Sydenham’s Mayow Park and Paul in along the Ravensbourne flood plain in Deptford’s Brookmill Park. All making a difference.

We were due to be visiting Lewisham Unity this evening but unfortunately there is a fly tipping issue so that visit has been postponed till that is under control. Instead we had plan B - split into 3 groups and complete 3 different tasks.

Task 1

7 of us headed to TRAID to pack up the stock ready for the next season of stock, having the maximum number possible we were very efficient and had the task done in around 45min. This task usually takes us over an hour when there's only 3 or 4 of us so it goes to show what a difference extra pairs of hands make.

We had time for a quick group photo and then it was time for me to head to Glass Mill to meet the rest of the team.

Task 2

Making our start point look clean and tidy again! There was lots of litter around our start point and the team collected bags of litter and achieved the aim! No super obscure items except maybe a Lime Bike....

Task 3

Last but not least, Alison and Lindsay headed out armed with GG posters and a list of local supermarkets, with the aim of putting up the posters on the community notice boards. They managed to find 4 and I put one up on my walk to Glass Mill so thats 5 supermarkets with a GG poster up. Hopefully we see a couple of new faces!

Thank you for all your effort last night, we certainly made a difference!
