Report written by Denzel Kessie

Share the love

On a very beautiful morning, the Bermondsey Street Runners and me met outside Chapter 72. After some friendly conversation, we headed off. We cut through central London and passed through a couple of Arsenal supporters who were up bright and early for the parade.

Once we reached the Arc Community, we were welcomed by the lovely Amy who showed us around the green spaces the Arc Community manages. We were handled equipment then lead to a specific green space near a canal to get rid of any dead roots, clear path ways and remove any unwanted plants that were taking nutrients away from the flowers growing.

Once done, we ran past a sea of Arsenal supporters to get out of Islington and make our way back to Bermondsey. From there we got some coffee and sweet treats, had some lovely conversations, then parted ways. A great way to spend a Sunday morning.
