Report written by Bournemouth runner
This week the green space picked to be given a spring makeover was Kings Park.
After a day of cloudy sunshine and chilly winds, the time to get together slowly approached...along with the dark clouds and threat of icy rain! Typical!
Well, no icy rain fell from the skies, instead we were treated to snow!!
It didn’t deter us though. 12 of us got together and after a quick chat we split up into teams and started to comb through the park.
We welcomed Ellie to her first Bournemouth mission. She’s moved down from Leeds and has swept through the south coast with a wave of good deeds, sprinkling across Portsmouth, Southampton and Poole along the way!
We managed to coax Sean out of his hibernation, Sue had a close call on her way to meet us and Sam and John ran a combined 20km to come and hang out with us! Love it!!!
The teams collected 6 bags of rubbish in total. We found tea cups, skateboards and a little Chihuahua in a crate....(no no, he belonged to the travellers in the car park)
After about an hour and with different limbs threatening to go completely numb we called it a day and headed off in different directions.
Next week we go again! Come and join us!
