6 GoodGymers made their way to help the Festival Gardens tidy up in Liverpool.
- Saturday, 16th of December 2023

After all the rain we have had lately Saturday morning greeted us with blue skies and the gorgeous sight and feel of winter winter sun. At Princes park run there was a gaggle of Goodgymmers it's a busy time of year and not everyone could continue on to the task today. but shout outs to Aditya Jo Julie Vicky Liam Eileen and Sallyann for their princely park run presence.
The task today was helping Friends Of Festival Gardens with clearing brambles. The Friends Of Festival Gardens are a group that have made a huge difference in a short space of time in the festival gardens and it is a joy and privilege to be asked to help out.
We quickly set to and where 'in the thick of it' in the 'thicket'- a massive bramble patch overgrowing onto the path edges was tackled by Goodgymmers and Friends of Festival Garden volunteers. The plan was to clear the brambles to let things underneath grown when spring arrives - hydrangeas a tiny holly and a small oak were all uncovered and we were told there will be other things under the soil that will now be able to breathe and grow when the time is right.
A warm welcome to Dave on his first task - the first of many we hope. As we all left the task the winter sun warmed our backs and we all felt satisfied with the task we had helped with. Its amazing how much can be done when you have willing hands and hearts.
Oh and the pun..... some say it may be because Sallyann always seems to chat more than work but I don't know that that is true ;)
Why not get some of that warm feeling at our last session of the year on Monday evening
