Last night Fiona and Rob were back at Trinity close helping in the communal garden.

The original plan was to chop a bush down in one of the resident’s gardens, but as Autumn is now upon us the residents asked if we could dig up some of the roses bushes that didn't flower this summer. The rose bushes will go off to a green-fingered resident to be cared for over the winter months to give them a bit of TLC!

Once all the rose bushes were out, we set to work with some weeding and turning over the soil, ready for some wood-chip to be put down to try and keep the weeds at bay.

We will be back in two weeks’ time for our last 2020 evening task at Trinity Close as the nights will be getting darker, but don’t worry, we will be continuing to go on a Saturday morning instead. GoodGym does not stop - even in the winter months!
