Woking Report written by Julie
Following the completion of a task for lovely Dramatize at their Knaphill centre, the Woking Goodgym team were asked to help create a useful garden space at their Brookwood site. Anne, Alys, Katie and Kirsty ran to the task to find that Wayne had made a great start on removing the debris from the space. Everyone got stuck in and cleared away the remaining branches and ivy while our former forest school leader, Anne led the creation of a dead hedge to create a wildlife habitat and secluded space for Dramatize students to relax in. Great job everyone!

Knaphill Community Fridge
This evening 5 Goodgym members met at Knaphill Community Fridge to give the shed a good dust down and a lick of paint ๐
Anne ran 6k along the canal to get to the fridge while Katie also ran 6k but from the opposite direction both ladies getting their runs in before the Martian Race in a few weekends time ๐ฝ Wayne, Kirsty & Julie made there own way there. They were greeted my Jules who had two tasks that needed to be done. Wayne, Katie & Anne started to dust down the outside of the fridge before they applied a stain varnish onto the shed while Kirsty & Julie worked on a bedding in the pre-school removing weeds and planting new plants and flowers ๐ผ. It was a beautiful evening and plenty of conversations while the tasks were being carried out.
In no time both tasks had been completed and they looked great ๐
Jules was very pleased with the results

St Johns Church โช๏ธ
This evening Wayne & Julie met at St Johns church in West Byfleet to help with cutting back some overgrown trees in preparation for the summer fate ๐ Luckily it was not raining while we carried out the task. We started off with the big Oak tree and moved along the church grounds to each tree to cut back the low dead branches ๐ชพ In no time we had finished and the church care taker was very grateful.

Woking Report written by Alys Penfold (she/her)
Just the two of us! Tonight, Julie & I (Alys) headed over to St Markโs Church in Kingsfield to help out at their newly established community garden.
The hawthorn trees planted to create some lovely hedges were feeling a bit suffocated by grass and other small plants sharing their soil.
We spent an hour and a half with garden forks and spades getting as rid as many of the weeds as possible to leave behind a neat soil strip giving the saplings lots of much needed space.
I obtained some injuries - an ant bite to the calf and a speck of soil in the eye but this didnโt slow us down!
We managed to slip in some strength training too by taking turns carrying the waste over to the compost heap.
They are looking for regular volunteers to help maintain the garden - so if you have an hour to spare on a Wednesday morning, make sure to get in touch with Rosemary at St Markโs.

Our gardening team isn't yet big enough to be able to do all this ourselves, but this will give the plants the best chance of surviving!

All Aboard Club ๐
This morning Wayne, Alys, & Julie met Richard from All Aboard Club at Brookwood Halls to help build the big train track for the kids to enjoy ๐.
We were joined by a few other volunteers from local organisations. We Helped unload the car and between us took ll the crates into the hall and strategically placed them around.
Alys & Julie started to place the chairs around the hall for the parents then it was time to build. We all started in different area's and started to lay the tracks. within 30 mins the track was looking great. The track had plenty of loops and turns it must of been one of the most technical and interesting tracks we had done, it looked great.
This coming Wednesday we will be doing a leaflet drop around the Goldsworth Park Area for Sam Beare Hospice ๐
