Camden Report written by Alex Murtough (he/him)
10 wonderful GoodGymers made a HUGE difference... amidst the beats of a city festival!
Regent's Park is usually a sanctuary of peace โ there's green and trees, flowers too โ and you can often escape the sounds and bustle of nearby Camden.
But last night... we arrived to beats and drops and cheers... as well as three hefty security people guarding our entrance to the (wonderfully hidden) tool yard!
Pete โ all round Camden nature hero โ soon smoothed the way and we arrived at a yard that was desperate for a little GoodGym TLC :)
Our special group โ Alex, Caitlin, Emily, Jackie, John, Michael, Natalia, Pete, and Steve โ swiftly split into groups:
Michael and Jackie started by sorting and folding the pile of garden sacks โ the holed sorted from the non-holed, and everything tidied and ready for use! And they then picked brooms and swept the yard to shine!
Alex and Natalia grabbed shears and tackled a Jumanji-esque patch of vines โ they cleared everything and it was wonderful!
Caitlin, Emily, John, and Steve made light work of a pile of wood (keeping the larger bits that can be used for poles or building), before raking and sweeping and bagging a mountain of leaves (sifting the plastic trash from it as they did!)
And Pete was here and there and everywhere coordinating everything!
The yard looked liked a different yard at the end โ a huge difference โ even if we didn't quite get the peace we'd envisaged!
Thanks everyone!
