Tonight, 11 GoodGymers celebrated the return of the lighter evenings! It's felt like a long winter, so spirits were high tonight.

We headed up to Stainbeck United Reformed Church to clear an area of brambles by the car park. We pruned, trimmed, brushed, litter picked & filled 3 huge sacks of debris. We could notice a huge difference when we left, well done team! Lydia got stuck into the brambles, picking all sorts of weird & wonderful things out including a car wheel, a radio & several items of clothing.

Helen took us on a magical mystery tour on the run back to Heart, encountering a bomb shelter & two horses who didn't bat an eyelid as we ran through their field. We must have made friends since last time!

Welcome to David who joined us this evening and Lyn who organised the session.

Great work team!

Tonight, 11 GoodGymers headed down to support the Ash Road Residents Association & the great work that they do in their local area. We split into two groups, one group headed to the little garden besides the wood where we planted bulbs last year. The garden was somewhat winterfied (yes, I made up a word!) so we cleared all the leaves & dug around the borders to tidy it all up ready for spring. The second group headed to the planters to sand them down ready for painting, which we'll do when the nights get lighter.
Well done all, it was a good team effort before our run back to Heart.
