Tonight was our return to the Grow Cardiff project at the Grangetown Medical Centre, we hadn't been here for a year when the project first started. During this time, they had managed to secure some money to create a more accessible site, so we were welcomed with a brand new flooring and the start of the new beds.

We met Chris and had a brief chat about the time inbetween our visits, before getting to the list of jobs for the evening.

• Move slabs to the rear of the centre.
• Infill compost bins with green waste.
• Water the fruit trees / plants behind the medical centre.
• Litter pick around the centre.
• Move surplus building materials to the rear of the centre.
• Sort area under the Cherry Tree, level the soil,
• Remove rubble from borders.

A lot of work and what looked to be a great workout on a glorious sunny evening. No time to stand about, lets get to it!

Before we had even arranged the garden jobs, Jonathan and Neda were out litter picking in the sunshine. Gold Star to you both....⭐

Su and Imy were onto the borders, taking out any large stones and moving them to the large middle planter. Lucy was sweeping and cleaning, Adam (after breaking the rake) was on leveling duty with Dylan.

Darren and Andrew were with wheelbarrows, moving bricks, slabs and rubble from behind the polytunnel to behind the medical centre. Martin, took to the green waste compost area and filled it, then joining the wheelbarrow crew to build their very own Jenga stack.

It was a great evening helping and we certainly kept ourselves fit tonight. Well deserved food after the run....

Join us next week as we will be keeping with the Nature theme this month over at Cwtch Together.

Last night, the GoodGym crew took to the streets near Roath Library for a litter pick that was anything but trashy! Our team of litter legends included Michael, Darren, Lucy, Jonny, Dave, and Martin, who were ready to clean up and have a wheely good time.

Jonathan stumbled upon a collection of empty cans, and we couldn't help but say he was can-do attitude personified.

By the end of the evening, the area around Roath Library was spotless, and our team felt like they had truly cleaned up their act. Thanks to everyone for making this litter pick a bin-credible success! Let's keep running and picking, GoodGym!

Back to regular with a Tuesday task this week, and it just felt right. Michael led the group down part of the taff embankment on their way to Cwtch Together...Whilst we are mentioning the River Taff, goodgym is taking part in a WORLD Record Attempt on March 21st 11:00 - 13:00. You can sign up to this here

Meanwhile, back at Cwtch......

Joggers, walkers and cyclist joined forces once again, this time for a good Spring clean of the Scout Hall. But before we get started a quick welcome form our organiser, Sarah... and our instruction to give the hall a good scrub down to get rid of the spiders. Would you rather see a mouse or a spider? And what about a spider mouse......

Adam was straight on window cleaning duty - with the occasional rendition of "when i'm cleaning windows". Rosie went to brushing.....but the walls and ceiling, cobwebs be gone! Ben was cleaning those windowsills, Su, Emily and Dylan were wiping down the lower walls.

Dylan was on kitchen duty with Sarah, giving it a nice clean through, and finally in at the last moment...Lucy took to the ceiling sweeping that we just couldn't reach and the sweeping the hall once we had finished.

Our music tonight, a selection from Stevie Wonder, Stevie Nicks and the B-52's....A strange combination but a good run back to Rock Lobster.

Join us next week for a Spring litter pick, a practice before our April one as part of "The Great British Spring Clean".
