On a cold, crisp night, six GoodGymmers returned to the Groves after Sunday's task to finish clearing the outside space.

The pallet truck was a novelty that caused some excitement (and a lot of noise). We loaded the soil that had been bagged up from the planters onto the truck over two trips and transported it to suitable locations for reuse.

We also cleared the path, removed some buddleia and bagged up all the branches and vegetation we'd left on Sunday.

A job well done.

Five hi-viz GoodGym Yorkies met on a cold but bright Thursday morning for a litter pick. Bland Lane is a hotspot for litter, especially bottles of alcohol (mostly vodka) and drinks cans and today didn't disappoint. After only 35 minutes we'd collected a whopping 10 bags of very heavy rubbish - with a water pistol included! We left the area looking so much better and were thanked by several passers-by.
