Waited an hour before the delivery came and then used the second hour to unload and pack the veggies and fruits into crates and onto the shelves.

It's a bin-teresting day out!

Wednesday 26th November

Written by Isaac Beevor (He/him)

We did a fun litter pick in the Goldsmith Nature Reserve in Peckham. All sorts was collected by the team with a huge 4 bags of litter removed from the Nature Garden in 35 minutes.

The garden was less enchanting than Tom's midnight garden, although if we had stayed until the witching hour who knows how it would have come alive!?

On the way back we were plogging - running and litter picking, although some were better at that than others.

A little chaotic, a little cold but we all had a good time and it did feel like the Nature Garden has a lot less litter now.

The Second Hidden Borough Market

Wednesday 19th November

Written by Louis Benham (He/him)

Met up with an old school friend for lunch who works in the area so it was an obvious logical next step to help out here to stay away from my desk for a bit longer. They were unloading new stock from a Felix Project van when I arrived so helped with some lifting. I then had to quality inspect some carrots and cabbages for a bit and present them neatly to go on the shelves. Final task was to unbox longer life projects which I am demonstrating in the photos (totally not staged!). Had a really nice chat with two regular volunteers and really appreciated the tea. Planning to go back when I next have time in the new year.

Hanger on by a thread

Wednesday 19th November

Written by Southwark runner

Today 9 Goodgymmers went to help out at TRAID on Rye Lane to help out. They were finished with their autumn season and will do a full restock tomorrow. We took all the old clothes off their hangers and bundled everything into big boxes ready to be shipped off. There was even time at the end to do some cleaning up. Andrada and David shared the hoovering and then we were finished. Anca from TRAID send us home with chocolates. Great job everyone! We will be back in January.
