900!!

Monday 9th June

Written by Kim

To quote Marta "Thanks everyone! Very happy to have had 900 opportunities to spend time with amazing people like you guys!! ❤️". Well we're more than happy to share you with Greenwich and to celebrate the amazing achievement of 900 good deeds! You might have to wait another 100 good deeds for a tshirt and with your current rate of good deeds, we'll need to get planning for that one soon.

The task for the evening was to Alexander Care Home in Ladywell to continue tackling the weeds in the garden. We made a good dent in the flower beds last time and now this time we were focusing on the gaps in the pacing stones and the alkinet and brambles at the back of the garden.

The group then took a leisurely walk to keep me company on the short journey to Mamma Dough. It was good to chat about Charlotte Church, Marta staring in a gameshow, Saturday morning TV and the Pope visiting Charlton.

Thanks to Paul for getting the group to the task whilst I jumped on the bus. Next week is a double task so we need all hands on deck to tackle weeds at both Florence Green and Luxmore Garden.

Circle of Weeds

Monday 21st April

Written by Kim

A small but perfectly formed group of GG-ers took on an a short run to a brand new task at Alexander Care Home.

The main task for the evening was weeding the flower beds. The team are hoping to plant lots of flowers for the residents to enjoy.

Armed with tools that seemed to bend and have a mind of their own, we got stuck into the task. An hour had flown by and in between weeding, we spotted a rocking horse and also admired the giant garden.

We'll be back over summer and looking forward to seeing how this project progresses!
