Tower Hamlets Report written by Laura Williams
What a beautiful evening for tonight's task!
Shortly before 7 a good-sized group gathered in the corner of the Royal London Hospital forecourt to speed through tonight's short fitness session.
It was a fantastic area to workout in, complete with steps and small walls, perfect for shoulder-taps and step-ups.
We headed over to meet the rest of the team after a few stretches, delighted to see how steadily our little group was growing.
Following a briefing from Nancy and Richard, we divided into small teams, each tackling one of these large planters.
The planters are a good addition to the A&E area of The Royal London Hospital, but needed a good weeding after a damp and mild start to summer. Armed with gloves and bin bags, off we headed, determined to get the better of some giant thistles, nettles & co.
To say it didn't take the team long was an understatement. The first planter was clear well before 7:30, leaving plenty of time to turn the soil, ready for Operation Planter Part II.
With a new team put to work on weed and rubbish disposal, we were done and dusted - literally - at a quarter to 8!
What a fun evening.
A big shout-out to the team, especially to Ismet, who joined for his first, brilliant task.
Next week, we're back to the Yurt Cafe for one last final push in the landscaping project!
Until then.
