Primed for painting

Manchester Report written by Ben Foster

What a wonderful weekend of weather to get out in the fresh air!

Peter, Jordan, and Ben came out to help The Bee Sanctuary on the southern tip of Highfield Country Park in Levenshulme for their regular Sunday volunteering session.

With our now apparently renowned expertise in painting, we were tasked with preparing and priming a few areas to tidy up the volunteer shed and the entrance gate. Jordan and Ben took turns climbing the ladder to paint a border on the volunteer shed, a new installation for the group. The volunteer shed was installed with a compostable toilet and used to store their tools and, important for this session, their paint. The roof was also a "living roof" with vegetation on top too. Between us, we managed to apply primer to the full circumference.

Peter on the other hand was tasked with chopping back some brambles near the entrance and scraping away the paint from the metal bars. There always seemed to be more paint to scrape off! Once ready, all three of us applied zinc-based primer to the metal railings once clean and dry and managed to cover a decent section, with the paint pot nearly empty once we had finished for the day.

In between painting and scraping, we took a full part in the tea/coffee break with biscuits and Sheila, the lead volunteer for the group, gave us a grand tour of the Bee Sanctuary site. Covering several wildflower meadows, three ponds, plus plenty of dead hedges and hedge boundaries, there really has been a huge amount of work over the years to clear the mono-culture of brambles with a more biodiverse area of grasses, flowers, and wildlife. There was also a quiet "Forget-me-not" area for remembering those who had passed for local people.

We will certainly be back soon to help out and hopefully finish the painting we had started. It was also great to meet the other volunteers and Loki who did his best to help out in between chasing sticks.

Community Cape

Jordan earned their community cape by completing their first community mission.

Jordan completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Jordan was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.

GoodGym GRIT

Manchester Report written by Ben Foster

GRIT Studios have been going for 3.5-4 years with bases in Stockport and a studio in Manchester, Deansgate. now they have a space for "Gritters" in Salford. An old natwest bank in Salford shopping centre has been left empty and unused for 6 years(!) so hopefully the space can be put to better use!

Upon arrival, it was clear it would be a big task. With builders in this week to do bits of plastering and filling in holes in the wall and ceiling, the space was safe to use.

Jordan and Stefanie donned their overalls to fill in walls and plaster, including over a disused lift shaft with paint to give a clean slate for incoming artists ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿ–Œ. Pavel, Gameel, and Peter helped scrape and clear paint from the windows, clear large items as rubbish๐Ÿ—‘, and clear rooms of any bits left from previous incumbents. Ben helped scrape paint, paint over removed wallpaper, and clean windows๐ŸชŸ.

After a couple of hours, we had done what we could with a likely repeated trip back to finish any specific tasks with opening days not too far away.

It was really great to help out and good numbers to get a lot done in a short amount of time. Hope you enjoyed the task and see you soon!

The tilers return

Stockport Report written by Laura Boldison

We returned back to St Mary's Church for a second week to fix any final loose floor tiles. โ›ช๏ธ

Meera and Laura ran the 3km to the Church, with Ben, Hannah and Jordan meeting us there. It was great to meet Jordan doing his first GoodGym task in Stockport. ๐Ÿ‘‹

It was great to see that those we fixed last week were still looking good despite being walked on. ๐Ÿ™Œ

Today we mostly focused on adding dried mortar to increase the stability of the loose tiles. ๐Ÿ”จ

Another great task!
