This week our Group Run took us to the Welcare garden where we were tasked by Sue to hack back the weeds which had started taking over the pathway. The smaller kids were struggling to get round on their wheeled tricycles as the unwanted plants were getting so big. Jassy, Sevan, Sabir, Tom, Rachel and new GoodGym member Jorge (welcome!) got straight to it.

Loppers, trowels, forks and secateurs all were used in the battle to gain control over the pesky weeds and we all started in different sections in the garden. Moving slowly round until we all met up after the hour was passed, finishing the area by the outhouse. Jassy tested out the ease at which a small tricycle could travel on the newly-weeded path and found it to be satisfactory. Tools down! Task complete.

Once all the weeds and leaves were bagged up, we chatted with Sue about her plans for Welcare. Decorating an internal room was high on her list, the roof needed to go on the outhouse before it needed painting and there was a potential idea to help sort the basement. Watch the calendar for the tasks as they come through!

It was a great evening - well done to everyone that helped with the task.
