On Wednesday, Nelly James and I went to TRAID to help them pack away the clothes from their sale, ready for a new stock the next day. There were lots of people already there from TRAID and so we were finished within 40mins. We finished by doing a quick sweep and vacuum of the floor, before heading off.

Last night for our group run, we went to a block of flats in Kennington Park Road, to help the community there with their garden.
Firstly, we met at Old Spike which was the start of our run. We welcomed some newbies Diana, Sam and Nancy. Then after a quick warm up, we split into two groups and set off to Kennington at two different paces. Daryl's group were first to arrive, also meeting them there was James, Lindy and Richard. They all got stuck in the the first task, which was to move a shed. Diana, Nelly and I joined after. We all were given a variety of different tasks: moving soil, assembling furniture, trimming bushes and raking leaves.
Sandy and the rest of the TRA were really happy to have us. We made a big difference in the short amount of time. Well done all!

On Wednesday 14 of us went to do some weeding at Peckham Rye Park and Common Tiny Forest (which has grown a lot since our last visit!) followed by a game of bowls at Peckham Bowls. We did get caught in the rain on our loop of the park but it stopped by the time we got to Tiny Forest. And luckily was dry for the rest of the evening.

7 Goodgym Southwark members ran off on a slightly chilly Wednesday night to Elmington Community Garden...
We arrived, and were met by Mansur, Sam, Lindy and Jessie who joined us at the task. Together we hauled woodchip to three different parts of the Elmington Estate, making sure the soil stays moist in this dry spring and stopping the growth of new weeds.
For those that did run to and from Old Spike, Nathan had bought some sweet treats back from Colombia - que bueno Señor Wood!
