Six of us set out for tonight's task after a request from a local resident to tackle litter in the area.

With the mist rolling in and visibility low, we were armed with brand new litter pickers, bags, bag holders and hi-viz jackets kindly provided by the Council and got to work.

Starting by Welling's historic cannon, we worked our way along Welling High Street, down into the resident's road, and a few smaller side roads, making sure every stray crisp packet, rogue drinks can and even a lost shoe or two were safely bagged up.

The fog certainly added atmosphere to the evening, and there was a concern we might have not noticed some obvious pieces of rubbish strewn on the floor.

Our fears were allayed however by a message from the resident shortly afterwards thanking us for making such a noticeable difference, leaving the streets looking cleaner and tidier for the community.

Another good evening's work, a bit of exercise, a good chat along the way, and proof that even on the foggiest of nights, a determined group can still make a clear visible difference.

Such a fun evening tonight at Parkview Care Home.

We were greeted by the home's activity coordinator, Annette, who had song sheets already prepared for us and the residents were waiting and looking forward to the sing along!

We started with "Tip toe through the tulips" and then "My old man's a dustman'". I'm sure our voices are improving and there was even some dancing thrown in! The care home manager even complimented us on our singing!

In no time at all it was time to leave and we finished, rather appropriately, with "We'll meet again".

We said our goodbyes, until next time!

And we'll be back again next month so do come and join us!

It was party time at Parkview Care Home, and we were there to help with the preparations!

There were trestle tables to put up, patio chairs to wipe down and bring indoors, tables to be moved aside, serviettes to be folded, plates to be put out, and festive hats to be given out.

All of this set to a Christmas tunes playlist, and lots of chatting with the residents.

After a spin around the room with the drinks trolley, it was time for us to head off with cheery "merry Christmas!" wishes as we said our goodbyes.

Welcome to GG Bexley, Bassey. We're glad to have you with us now you've moved to our patch from Croydon.
