Mulch Suzuki

Islington Report written by Paul Bown

23 Goodgymers ran 5km and helped the Single Homeless Project move four tonnes of woodchip/mulch

Welcome along to Tom, Kate and Liam whose first time it was last night - lovely to have you along!

In the news this week:

  1. Well done to Steve Coman who cycled the 120 mile Dunwich Dynamo on the weekend!
  2. Good luck to Kike, and 10 other Goodgymers who are doing London Triathlon this weekend.
  3. Sign up for August's Long Run here - Dom's got a great route planned!

After our intros and warm up we headed north-east over Highbury Fields and via Highbury Barn to the Single Homeless Project Hostel on Highbury New Park Road. This fantastic charity helps provide housing, support and services to homeless people. Our task this week was to move four tonnes of a woodchip and mulch cocktail from outside the house into the garden.

Armed with four shovels, two wheelbarrows and four bags an orderly cycle began - as tonnes of the stuff headed into the garden Frances pointed out where to empty it - the first focus was trees, bushes and then plants. A team of four spread the mulch around the trees etc as it came in.

More mulch please!

The size of the mulch pile was communicated in car model - from Maruti (Mulch) Suzuki, in Mini, to Jeremy Clarkson tiny car! Good comms guys. Meanwhile the rest of the team weeded, cut back overgrowth and swept up. Good work!

Over 30 minutes we made a huge difference to our Islington community - awesome sauce! Before leaving we took a super cool football serious photo :)

On our way home we did a 1km time trial around Highbury Fields - everyone was fast and furious!

I'm away for the next two weeks, next week Steve Lee will be in charge and the week after Graham - look after them.

PB out
