Monday 13th January
Report written by Anita (she/her)
Roll up, Roll up.
Ladies and Gentlemen, children of all ages, welcome to the greatest show on earth.
Tonight under a magnificent full moon, Richmond witnessed Good Deeds that pushed the limits of human ability. As you read this run report and look at the photos, be amazed by our gravity-defying gardening, hold your breath at our fearless weeding and laugh with our hilarious clowning acrobats.
Our regular performers have given their Monday evenings to perfecting their craft. They’ve trained countless hours, pushing themselves past limits, all to create moments of pure astonishment for you. Each task completed on this cold January night told a story: a story of determination, skill, and the pursuit of excellence. From our remarkable leaf rakers and sweepers, our wonderful weeders, our compost turners, our barricade builders, to our skilled human numerals, every performer brought their special magic to Buccleuch Gardens.
Please put your hands together for our newest recruits Jade and Mike and our fabulous run leader Sam. And for regulars Monika, Suze, Anita, Rosie, Harry, Chris, Cathy and Ken. Everyone adding something special to this 'second Monday' task and each one essential to the spectacular ‘2025' finale.
