Brighton Report written by Tara Shanahan
Welcome tonight to Graham, joined us in March 2020 (!) joined us for his first group run last night. And a comment from the man himself…
"I really enjoyed meeting you all on my very first GG deed and my amble around the level. Who knew weeding would be so satisfying, might even start hacking my own garden now! Thank you for making me welcome. "
Our work on the Percy Wagner bed over the years has led to some vast improvements for the local residents. When we first went there about 4 years ago it was gloomy, overgrown, absolutely covered in litter and was clearly being used for all sorts of dodgy purposes, causing a massive nuisance for those living in the almshouses behind. Last year the council did a major cut back of the shrubbery that was providing cover for the dodginess and on our visit last night there was practically no litter, just vast amounts of the usual bindweed for us to pull up by the armful.
Elsewhere our battle with the local scribblers continued as we deployed in pairs to cover various artless tags and daubings around the Lewes Road and Southowver Street. And newly Task Force qualified Stefania and Michael helped cut back some overgrown shrubbery b;ocking the light on some communal housing.
We finished the evening with a bit of relay running around the Level
I really hope to see lots of you next week for what will be my last group run for a while and of course there will be some pub action after, watch this space!
