Report written by Alex Murtough (he/him)
10 wonderful GoodGym folk made a green-fingered difference in Kentish Town!
Five of us – Alex, Danny, John, Matt, and Steve – started out from Somers Town yesterday evening.
Matt ran from Battersea Park – John sprinted from Euston Station – Danny ran down from Kentish Town – and Steve wove his usual route up from Bloomsbury!
Together we followed a steady route towards Willingham Terrace (situated in a very hot Kentish Town) and met five others – Alison, Caitlin, Helen, Lydia, and Sarah – each of whom made their own journeys (on foot and bike) to our good-deeding venue.
Hilda has lived on this estate for decades and she's transformed the green spaces – there's a bountiful allotment that was once a verge – and it's all thanks to Hilda's perseverance and creativity.
Yesterday was our second visit and we were focused once again on the communal square's hedgerow.
Weeds were pulled – grass edges were established – and four great big bags of cuttings were collected and disposed.
The difference was huge – and all under an overbearing July sun!
Thank you, everyone!! See you next time!!
