Today the GoodGym gang ran 7 km to Wellsbourne Community Garden and back.
We welcomed new members Paul, Paul and Paul.
Stalwart member Rosie was running her 50th session!
We met Lucy, our task owner, at the Wellsbourne Healthcare Centre. She explained they had a volunteer gardening day tomorrow. Our task was to dig holes to plant wild flowers and plants to attract pollinators. We readied our destructive green fingers and shovels and got to work. Others made swift work of tidying and weeding the garden.
Stefania did a fitness exercise session to work on all those muscles we had neglected while running and digging.
To thank us, lovely Lucy kindly gave us cooking herbs from the garden and chocolate. How nice 🙂!

A Community Garden to promote health and well-being in East Brighton
Our Community Garden is supported by volunteers who help grow food and flowers and can learn gardening skills. It is an inclusive space both for Wellsbourne Healthcare Centre's patients and the wider community to sit in and enjoy. We want it to flourish and grow.
