A shower at the Baths!

Liverpool Report written by Ema Quinn (She/her)

This was our third visit to the Old Baths site on Lodge Lane, with the aim of finishing off clearing all the overgrowth and years of layers and layers of litter from the back wall. The Seeds of Change project are working on a mural for the wall, telling the history of the site, from the original wash house, to the baths many of the older local community remember well.

Sallyann lead a social run with Ruth from Hope street and the rest of us either walked or cycled our way there meeting all together at the site.

It started raining shortly before we arrived, and continued to pour down throughout the evening, so we felt we were somehow connecting to the history of the wash house in getting very very wet!!

The excitement of the evening came in the shape of an old rusted safe we found that had been hidden in the overgrowth for who knows how many year. Try as we did, we could not get it open, but instead ran free with ideas of what might be inside, from gold from the titanic to someones head! We reluctantly left it in the good hands of the Seeds of Change team with a promise of a share of the goodies should they ever get it open.

Using cutters, hand saws and litter pickers we made wet progress in finishing off all but the final stump of the buddleia bush. Elinor (leading the project) had brought a power saw for her to complete it's removal, but given the heavy rain we all thought better of using an electrical equipment on this particular occasion, so we settled for cutting it back as much as possible and, thanks to Pauline and her hand saw, did a sterling job before calling it a day, freezing cold and soaking wet.

We're very much looking forward to seeing the mural take shape over the coming weeks now!

Raspberry Brigade!

Liverpool Report written by Ema Quinn (She/her)

Another of our monthly visits to help out with the fabulous Liverpool Zero Waste Community. A repeat visit for Heetu and myself, but the first time for Ruth and Jennifer

This time the team there had been hosting a children's party in the early evening to celebrate the contribution of all the young people and kids that help out in the wider LZW community, often tagging along with family members helping to carry and sorts bags of donated food. They were finishing off cleaning up so we got started on setting up all the tables and chairs for the evenings donations.

As usual we mucked in, finding out what small changes had been made to the process since we last visited, and helping to get everything fairly distributed into each of the bags ready to be collected by people at the end of the night.

This time we saw huge amounts of punnets of Raspberry's and strawberry's and came home smelling of all these beautiful fruits and with a couple of bunches of saved flowers each too!

We'll be back again in a month so come and join us!

Weed Meet Again

Liverpool Report written by Matthew

On a perfect day for gardening, not too hot, not too sunny, 4 Good Gym members, Heetu, Tony, Ruth, and Mat went back to help Gerry at The De La Salle kitchen garden. This was one of our first tasks out of lockdown last year. What a difference a year makes. They have transformed a barren area of land into a wonderful kitchen garden with polly-tunnels, raised beds, and fruit trees, so it's lovely to have been able to help them on their horticultural journey.

The aim is to use all the fruit and veg. produced in the kitchen which is part of what is going to be a hotel for trainees in the hospitality industry.

Our task on Saturday was to dig out an area which is going to used to plant more fruit trees. With Gerry, our host digging in we got most of what was a tough area dug over, de-stoned and de-weeded. Another very satisfying task and as the work never ends we'll be back again for sure.
