This morning 8 of us joined forces with the Friends of Hornfair Park for their monthly Talk and Tidy to tackle the areas just outside the park where the litter blows in. Before too long we found a few hauls of litter which kept us busy, chatting away until our bags were full and we were ready for a hot drink. We found a stash of mushrooms and a stash of cash...well a £5 note but not bad!

After a photo we headed over to Frilly's cafe to enjoy a hot drink together, and quite a crowd we were! Thank you everyone, a lovely way to start the weekend and special happy birthday wishes to Ivar!

Tomorrow we've got Westcombe Woodlands and next weds we're back at Prince Philip Collections Centre.

Until next time! 👋🏻 Rachel

This evening a small but mighty crew of Cat, Marta, and Rachel headed over to Glyndon Community Centre to lend a hand with a big clear-out of the garage.

After a short uphill run to get the legs warmed up, we arrived ready to tackle the task. The garage had become a bit of a storage maze, so our mission was to help sort through items into things that could be reused and get rid of things that had seen better days.

We made quick work of the job, creating a good aisle of space for the next session to continue sorting!

There was plenty of chatting and laughter along the way, making it another lovely Wednesday evening spent doing good and catching up with friends.

A job well done, team! 💪 🏃‍♀️

Next week we're at Prince Philip Maritime Collections Centre and this weekend we have Talk and Tidy and Westcombe Woodlands!

Until next time,

Rachel

A change to our Wednesday evening schedule meant an impromptu litter pick for 7 Greenwich GoodGym-ers. After a warm up and an exchange of Autumn/Winter resolutions (more Goodgym at the top of the list for all of us obviously!) we had a downhill run to Anchor & Hope lane in Charlton, where lots of litter was waiting for us to trundle away.

Bottles, tins, cigarette boxes, newspapers, coffee cups, crisp bags, crunchie wrappers & everything in between ended up in our bags as we worked our way along the supermarket strip of Charlton.

Much chatter speeded the task along, and we'd some full bags to show for our efforts by the time an autumn shower rained on our parade (of shops) signalling the task end and a run for dry land.

This weekend we have Mycenae Gardens and tree planting at Roots4Life.

Thanks all & hope to see you soon 😊
