St Richard’s Church in Charlton is a much-loved space where many local events take place, from band concerts to craft fairs to cinema showings and of course regular services. But the grounds surrounding the church have been allowed to overgrow over the years. Fortunately, Good Gym excelsin sorting this out and having been for a group run on a Wednesday night we were back on a Saturday morning to continue. The first job was naturally to clear all the weeds we’d missed on the previous occasion, but from then on it was a continuous pushing back of the rows of weeds and brambles. Soon we had cleared a good amount, enough to fill three big bags, one for each of us helping out, and all that remained to have some fun tearing up boxes for cardboard to lay to avoid having the weeds come back.
