This morning 3 Goodgym members helped Salthill juniors with their parkrun event.

Six volunteers met at Upton Court park to do a litter pick, while some of us continued to walk to Eton and back, a 5k round trip. Good to catch up with volunteers new and old.

A very warm welcome to Bejay on his first ever Goodgym task. We hope you enjoyed the session.

Our task as usual was to help May sort through the donated clothes into season trends and colours.

In the short space of 1 hour we managed to get through 20 plus bags!

Wonderful morning for us volunteers to get out, whether was crisp but not too cold. Thank you to our regular volunteers making this event possible.

Clare and Sheila joined the monthly BBOWT workparty at Haymill Nature Reserve alongside a number of regular volunteers. Our task was to repair the structure forming a dam across the stream that runs across the reserve The stream bed was dry, which made our task easier. One group carried out a litterpick along the streambed, amassing 2 big bags of rubbish, while others foraged for saplings suitable for use as stakes. These were hammered in place where needed and hazel whips used to weave between the uprights. Once dead leaves and debris have been caught in the mesh it should prove an effective dam to retain the water. Despite the damp conditions our spirits were high and we were pleased with our handiwork
