It's good to be back. In our first session at Heeley People's Park since lockdown, 5 goodgymers were on the case, woodchiping around the climbing boulders to create a soft safe landing for both kids and pro climbers alike.

Rob set us to task, explaining where the woodchip was to go and assigning trugs to each of us in line with the covid safe system of work.

In an hour and a half as a group we completed the equivalent of a full days graft, and after finishing the planned areas around the main boulder and mini boulders we still had 15 mins to tackle woodchiping under some trees to finish off.

Great job well done team.
