A fired up team from GoodGym joined Clean Up Charlton members for an hour on the circuit around the retail park in SE7. Half the group tackled the usual debris in Anchor & Hope Lane and Bugsby's Way, and the rest Woolwich Road and a 'grot-spot' at the car-charging station. Now, as well as clean energy, we have a clean pavement there. Then it was a brief call to 'Frankie & Benny's Alley' which we will have to rechristen 'Popeye Lane' now - doesn't mean it has any less litter!

Thanks for a great effort to everyone who attended - you light up our life!

Another sunny Sunday and GoodGym, CleanUpCharlton and a local friend set out to clean the mean streets of SE7. Hopefully the person who complained about the state of Ramac Way on FixMyStreet recently will see a bit of a difference - but what's with all the balloons? (Almost 99 and none of them red!). And why are there SO many cigarette ends in the cycle lane? It's these type of intellectual questions that GoodGymers have to try to answer...

We left 4 bags for Greenwich Council (in the approved grey bags), sorted out some Asda trollies so they didn't cause a car crash, and made a neat pile of bigger items that will hopefully be collected too. And then it was off to the M&S cafe as usual for refreshments.
