A fantastic turnout from local residents helped make the launch of the new Lillington Library Community Garden a wonderful success.

Working alongside Cubbington & Lillington Environmental Action Now, I spent the morning creating the first beds in what will hopefully become a thriving community space for everyone to enjoy.

The event had a lovely community feel from start to finish. There was plenty of conversation as neighbours got to know one another, a song & a poem to celebrate the launch. Of course, no community event would be complete without refreshments and delicious cake to keep everyone fuelled!

It was brilliant to be involved right from the beginning of this new initiative and to help local residents create something that will continue to grow long after the day itself. We can't wait to see how the garden develops over the coming months.

A fantastic turnout in Warwick for the Earls Meadow mission, where GoodGymers teamed up with Leam Trash Friends to give this green space a proper refresh.

Armed with litter pickers, bags, and plenty of enthusiasm, the team spread out across surrounding areas, tackling everything from everyday rubbish to some more stubborn surprises.

💥 What we achieved 🔴 Collected an impressive 27 sacks of litter 🔴 Cleared a wide range of fly-tipped items, including a wheel, shower tray, gas cylinder, two bike wheels, and plenty of other dumped debris ☣️ Safely removed 3 canisters, helping make the area safer for everyone 🌱 Why it matters

Earls Meadow is a valued local space, and this session made a visible difference. From clearing hazardous waste to restoring the natural beauty of the area, every bag filled helped create a cleaner, safer environment for the community.

🙌 Community effort

A big shoutout to everyone who joined in to lend a hand. Every contribution counted, and the impact was clear to see by the end.

Great work team—doing good and getting it done 💪

Great work from the team today getting properly stuck in across the Gardens 💪

Despite a rainy start, spirits stayed high—and as luck would have it, the clouds cleared and things dried up just in time for us to really get going. Classic British weather, but it didn’t slow us down one bit.

This was a joyful, high-energy session with a brilliant mix of familiar faces and new joiners coming together to make a difference. Across the morning we:

🧹 Swept paths back to life 🌱 Tackled weeds along the edges 🗑️ Litter picked to keep the space clean and welcoming ✨ Gave the whole area a proper refresh

A huge thank you to first timers Priya & Freya who brought the energy and to Holy Trinity Leamington for the much-appreciated coffee ☕

And of course… no Top Park Tidy task is complete without a reward—peanut butter & dark choc chip cookies were very well earned and appreciated 🍪

Top effort all round 💚
