Clifton Down Growing Space has asked for some GoodGym help to assemble boxes from pallet collars, fix box liners and fill boxes with bark chipping and compost.

Helpers will need to lift buckets filled with compost into the planter. We ask all helpers not to overload buckets or lift weights which are too heavy for them and to take plenty of rest breaks.

All tools and equipment will be provided but please bring gloves (some spares will be available) and if necessary waterproofs if it’s raining.

The task is listed to run for 2 hours but please feel free to join later or finish early - just spare whatever time you have available.

The site is based directly behind Clifton Down Shopping Centre at the bottom of Alma Vale Road and a link to the address is here: https://www.google.com/maps/place/51%C2%B027'49.4%22N+2%C2%B036'40.6%22W/@51.463714,-2.611278,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d51.463714!4d-2.611278?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDExMy4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D
