Yesterday morning we joined a community litterpick in Welling.

We arrived at the organser's marquee just in time for a chat and photo with the Mayor, then we were asked to head to the cemetery where litter tends to collect around the perimeter hedges. Joined by Adele from Discover Welling, we picked up rubbish en route, then worked our way around the boundary and paths in the lovely graveyard.

Despite the grey skies, the forecast rain held off and time flew by as we chatted and tidied. It was great to be outdoors with great company, and we got in a great step count too 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️.

With four bags full of rubbish we returned to the marquee. In total 53 bags of litter were collected by 50 volunteers.

We said adieu to Adele and headed to The Hilltop Coffee Shop for cappucinos all round to celebrate Rachel's 200th good deed 🥳🎉. Rachel didn't want a fuss, but that's a whole lot of time spent doing good in the local community, so it's a big 'Hip Hip Hooray!' from of us in GG Bexley and GG Greenwich ❤.

Whether you're a seasoned GoodGymer like Rachel, or considering your very first venture with us, we'd love to see you at one of our tasks soon!
