A Royate Good Trim
9 GoodGymers made their way 7.2km to help the Royate Hill in Bristol.

It was a drizzly old morning at Royate Hill but 10 GoodGymers came out in force to help the Nature Reserve with some bramble cutting back. Once we had all convened, Martin showed us to the location for today's work: a very steep, brambly (and now wet and muddy) slope. The brave (/crazy) GoodGymers made their way straight down the slope while the more sedate/sensible ones went the road route. We were split between loppers and rakes, and got to work cutting back the brambles and then raking them into unused area. The task was a great core workout, as we precariously tried to keep our footing in the mud and wet while chopping and raking.
Martin promised we could come back to help with their other location once the baby goats were born and we headed merrily on our way!
