Report written by Laura Williams
Sree’s report
“The breakaway Hollybush Team consisting of Chris, Tyler, Michael and Sree were met by Margaret and Ash to assist with shovelling 4 enormous sacks of soil via wheelbarrows to the adjoining children's play area.
The four of us soon made light work of the task - much to the gratitude of Margaret and Ash. We headed back with 10 minutes to spare, to aid the Patriot Square team with the pruning clean up.
It was a pleasure to meet Michael for the first time and likewise catch up with Stephen who has GoodGym’d with Tower Hamlets in the past.”
Chris’s (ChatGPT-tastic) report
“In the quiet dusk of evening's fall, GoodGym gathered, answering the call. Margaret's garden, with tasks to share, Found helping hands and hearts that care.
One Margaret stood with soil to move, Her hopes entwined with every groove. The earth was heavy, yet spirits light, As GoodGym dug through the fading light.
Another Margaret, hedge in hand, Pruned the branches as they’d planned.
She trimmed with care, the evening still, Her garden shaped by gentle will.
The team worked on, with laughter near, Each task a joy, each word sincere. For in this simple, steady toil, They found a bond through hedge and soil.
As stars emerged and moonlight glowed, They packed their tools, their hearts bestowed.
With Margaret's gardens, now renewed, GoodGym departed, spirits imbued.
In every leaf, in every root, Echoed the sound of kind pursuit. For in the twilight’s tender hue, GoodGym's light of giving grew.”
A huge shout-out to the team tonight:
To Chris and Sree for leading the second task; to Rue for leading the Patriot Square Task.
To Sree and Chris for tonight's splendid report, and to Sree for tonight's pun.
Until next time.
Local residents planted a green diverse corridor continuously from the community garden to the main road. We put up bat boxes and also planted tree pits and a car park area .
