It was another great group session this week with 6 of us down at Leith Community Croft. Plenty of work done and a cheeky workout circuit in the park to cap it off :)

It was a cold, but thankfully dry evening and we warmed up quickly with our run down Leith walk from Edinburgh Street Food. We met Toby for the first time, who supports the planning and management of the community croft as a volunteer and has his own allotment space there too. Toby shared a little bit about the history of Earth in Common before putting us to work clearing leaves with rakes, bags, gloves and spades. Within the hour we had cleared the paths, entrances and area all around the cafe, not a bad job.

With an enthusiastic group we added a short little circuit workout in the park, because why not, and a few of us hung around afterwards for some food and a chat.

Shout out to Finn, Lucy and Chris for joining us for the first time. Hope to see you again!

We had another fantastic evening teaming up with Edinburgh Trash Club last night with a solid turn out of 8 GoodGymers turning up for a litter pick of Leith Links.

We made good time running down from Edinburgh Street Food to meet Indy and the rest of the volunteers from the Trash Club. Armed with litter pickers, gloves, bags and headtorches we managed to fill 15 bags of rubbish.

Time flies when you are picking litter and it was lovely dotting about in the dart with great company and great chat. It certainly felt like we left the area in a far better state than we found it.

Shout out to Leah and Niamh for making it along for their first session. It was great to meet you both and hope to see you again soon.
