Mangosteen

Thursday 3rd July

Written by Brenda SMITH (She/her)

Today I assisted with unpacking, packing and sorting two food donations deliveries at Vauxhall food bank. One of the many benefits of volunteering along side working on your fitness and meeting like minded people is learning new things, like tasting a mangosteen, which I have never seen, heard about or tasted until today. The centre tasted like a very sweet lychee. The red part of the fruit tasted like chalk.

Leaf It to Us! 🍃 GG Lambeth’s Green Flag Mission at Brixton Windmill Gardens

Tuesday 1st July

Written by Yianny (he / him)

The Run-Down

Our fantastic team of volunteers laced up their trainers and ran to Brixton Windmill Gardens to help Jean prepare for their upcoming Green Flag assessment. We were absolutely raking in the good vibes with 4 brilliant new faces joining us – talk about turning over a new leaf!

What We Accomplished

The team got stuck in with some serious garden maintenance, focusing on making the gardens look their absolute best for this week’s important review:

  • Leaf clearing: We raked up all the autumn leaves scattered across the grass areas
  • Path maintenance: Cleared and tidied the pathways throughout the gardens
  • General sprucing: Made sure every corner was looking pristine and presentable

The Impact

Thanks to our volunteers’ hard work, Brixton Windmill Gardens is now looking mint for their Green Flag assessment. Jean was over the moon with our efforts – you could say we really helped them branch out and show off what makes their space so special.

The gardens are now in tip-top shape for their review, and we’re rooting for them to achieve that coveted Green Flag status!

Volunteers: 11 amazing people (including 4 fantastic newcomers!)
Total good done: One garden ready to flourish under assessment scrutiny

Special thanks to Fi for leading the run while AA is away!
