GoodGym in Wonderland
3 GoodGymers made their way 4.0km to help the Friends of Felling Park in Newcastle.

After a successful group run last month at Felling Park we were excited to be invited back to help out for their Great Get Together event.
Upon arriving we looked for Charlie, the task owner, and found her rescuing a lost rabbit. This was especially fitting as part of the event was the "Madhatter's Tea Party". It was just a shame that the bunny didn't have a waistcoat or pocket watch...
Charlie explained what we could do to help out. It wasn't 'painting the roses red' but instead we swiftly got to work tidying the paths up of debris. The three of us - Andrew, Amy and I - made quick work of it to ensure that the park would be ready for the start of the event; Andrew being the height of efficiency with two brushes. It was shame we couldn't stay for jam tarts with the Red Queen, but we all had to head off (before she actually declared 'off with your heads!')
We're sure that this will become one of our favourite organisations to help out- especially as we were offered tea and food (we only took the tea, fearful of potential growth or shrinkage, and there were no dormice to be found!)
