Kingston upon Thames Report written by Jade
We were lucky with the weather today as the temperature improved and the rain stopped ahead of the start of the group run and task at Jubilee Square. In arrival we met with Danni and we're briefed on 3 new jobs as the mulch hadn't arrived.
Luke and Petra started on the bunting and signage, Megan and Ben got busy with the trellis construction, and Jade and Marcos took to the litter picking and general tidy up of the beds like pros.
The remainder of the team arrived to help and we were soon done, proving that many hands make light work.
With time for a quick workout session including a few star jumps and we were packed up and on our way before the cold could get us.
Some of the team will be back to help with the mulch when it arrives. Thanks to Danni for having us

Kingston upon Thames Report written by Dave White
Tonight's task was split in two - One team at the Canbury Gardens Community Garden and the other at Kingston GoodGym's plot just a couple of hundred metres away.
Claire, Julie, Marcos and Tom headed to our GoodGym flower bed where we found a big mound of woodchip waiting for us. After clearing away a few pesky weeds that had come up since our last visit, we spread bucketfuls of woodchip around the plants to keep them warm and cosy over winter. We even had some time left over to clear up the surrounding weeds. We left the bed looking lovely and tidy with lots the flowering plants still looking very colourful.
Meanwhile, Luke, Jane, Rachel, Helen & Dave cracked on helping the ever-lovely Marilyn with the Canbury Community Garden. The compost needed turning and a huge pile of vines and plant waste had to be chopped before making it viable for the compost heap. As always, many hands made light work with this task and we were on to the next - pruning some of the larger weeds around the area. It was during this task that we randomly found a massive bag of seafood mix - scallops, fish, octopus, shrimps... One packet, 'sole'ly on it's own - we were all shell-shocked! I'm clamming up about how good these puns are.
A HUGE congrats to Tom on achieving 100 good deeds. You ran with the cape and crown like a champ! King for the day :)
