GoodGym turned up in force to Elm Road Park having run, walked and cycled their way there.

Upon arrival we were provided with safety glasses, masks, scrapers, chisels and sandpaper and were spread out along a concrete fence.

The task was to remove any last pieces of a mosaic, scrape off the loose paint and sand back the surface so that it was ready for painting. The paint was stubborn in some areas and we were moved around as each section progressed until each panel was quite smooth.

We will return next week when the rain will have hopefully stopped to finish any more preparation work and do some painting so everything is ready for a new mural.
