Two of us braved Storm Goretti and returned for round two at the Sutton Estate Community Centre last night as we continued supporting Bolton Wanderers in the Community with a glow up of this well-used local hub.

Armed with equipment from the nearby Volunteer Vault, we set about clearing litter, pulling weeds, and tackling stubborn moss that had made itself far too comfortable around the building. It was one of those deeply satisfying tasks where small efforts quickly added up, and the exterior of the centre started to look noticeably brighter and more welcoming as we worked our way around.

Meanwhile, providing an unexpectedly joyful soundtrack to our efforts, a Morris Dancing class was in full swing inside the centre. As we scraped, swept, and weeded, the sound of bells and rhythmic stepping filtered out through the walls - proof that while we were tidying up the outside, the inside was very much alive with community spirit.

A short session, a big visual improvement, and a reminder of why these community spaces matter so much. We left knowing the centre now looks a little more loved from the outside.

Well done to Laurence for completing his first ever GoodGym Mission!
