Our group run this week was flyering for Coco Collective which is a community garden in Bellingham, they also have a site in Catford. We were promoting their volunteer sessions and also their wellbeing sessions which started in April.

Welcome to Mo - your first group run was a long run so hopefully you join us next week for a short one to St Mary's Church!

When we arrived at the community garden, the first task was locating the flyers which was super easy after the last time when we had to find them in the pitch black garden having never been there before!!

We then ran to meet Marta at the designated flyering start point, only about 8 minutes later than I'd said...

We split into 2 groups: one coming with me and one with Steve. Armed with highlighted maps of the area, we went our opposite ways with the aim to meet back at the start point at 8pm.

100's of flyers delivered, all fingers in tact and hopefully we have spread the word about this wonderful community project!

I will admit it was further than I expected but everyone made it - well done!!
