3 GGers met up after a long hiatus to help clear an overgrown football field for the NEATly named North Edgbaston Action Team. Several members of the NEAT team had made an early start and gave us an idea of the incredible plans they had for the area, with activities ranging from archery to boot camps to overnight camping.

Everyone got involved, with Louise busy litter picking around the brambles while John and Liam got on with moving all the cuttings into piles ready to be burnt. As the hail came down the fun really began, with small fires started, aidly helped with the addition of some petrol!

Looks like this task will be ongoing for a while so it would be great to get GG more involved!
