A year on from our first session in this garden, it was lovely to see how well it's coming along, with the first daffodils shyly emerging and the impressive new bay tree resplendent in its pot. For this session we were planting fruit trees, moving blackcurrant and raspberry bushes, cutting back lemon balm and doing some weeding, all under the knowledgeable supervision of Inger. The sun came out and it didn't really feel like January. We'll be back next month!

This was an extra (January challenge booster) group session. The aim was to deep clean the kitchen at the Martin Way Methodist Church, home to the Open Table and soon to become a night shelter. Gloves at the ready, six of us faithfuls set about cleaning behind the fridge, wiping down surfaces, sorting drawers and cupboards, hoovering, mopping and anything else that could be completed within the hour. The sparkling results spoke for themselves! As the clock struck the hour we departed into the night, excited to catch the next episode of The Traitors...

We had a fantastic turnout to help clean and organise the storage area at Merton's Community Fridge for tonight's group session. After a briefing, we emptied the entire room and then split up into 3 teams; 2 groups on labelling and sorting all the food and other items and then the other team tackled the deep cleaning. Everyone got stuck in and a lot was achieved - well done team!

A big welcome to Jo and congratulations on your first GoodGym task, we hope to see you again soon.
