Yesterday afternoon, three GoodGym runners headed over to Farsley Rehoboth to help out with their restoration work.

Jenny, Gemma and Jade arrived at the Rehoboth just after 1pm and quickly got stuck in and hauled rocks and rubble to help create a supporting wall for the newly built footpath. The three GoodGym runners worked together with a couple of other volunteers to create an efficient rock moving system. In 90 minutes, the team had moved huge amounts of material and created a strong supporting wall.

GoodGym Leeds have developed a great relationship with the Rehoboth and are already looking forward to the next community mission!
