Today 12 of us got together to go and help a new organisation. Body Positive, a charity that is set up to help those affected and living with HIV. One of the carers there is using the offices to get married, so Samantha, the founder, asked us to come down and make their garden look amazing. It was great to have Andy join us after a while away, such a lovely surprise!

Our run there was very short, but all uphill. Just a little over 1km of a gradual climb, just not enough time for us to all get chatting and catch up on the past week's happenings! Samantha was so happy to see us and had managed to get together most of the tools they had available. The gang got stuck right in! Laura and Dan on their knees getting all the muck out from between the stones on the floor and doing an amazing job! Sarah, Daryl and Andy swept up the whole patio area and filled numerous bags. Pia and Megan were one terrace up making the flower beds look good enough for an appearance on Gardeners' World! The other half of the gang were in the front garden. Neil was scraping out weeds from between the paving stones, Heather chopping down bramble with Soren. Caprice sweeping. Everyone finished their jobs and then went to help out in other areas. In about 45 minutes time we had filled 8 bags of garden waste and left the place ready for a royal wedding!!! Amazing job team! Samantha was so grateful and impressed, and it was great to start to build another meaningful relationship in the our community! I hope you all have peaceful dreams and that the good karma finds you soon!

See you all next week!
