Post Parkrun (of course) 3 GoodGymer's cycled over to Catton Grove allotments, in quite frankly, pretty grim weather !
We met the lovely Karen on site and she explained we were there to help clear a large overgrown allotment patch. As its going to be a community garden.
Armed with loppers we set to work earnestly. The rain relented through the morning and we made good progress clearing the site of potential hazards, chatting with Matt a friendly local volunteer who taught us all about competitive Scrabble!
At midday we had a lovely break of coffee and jaffa cakes and John kindly donated us some allotment produce !
Jonathan and I also got an allotment tour and got shown a good dead hedge!
Well done everyone.

Today 4 GoodGymer's bravely turned up on a wet and rainy Saturday morning during Storm Claudia. The Friends of Waterloo park volunteers wanted to take advantage of the extreme weather to allow the mulch to be most affective, and they needed Goodgym’s help to achieve this.
Goodgymer’s Katy, Jonathan, Elizabeth and Sarah got to work and distributed mulch across the many flower beds. Elizabeth and Sarah were also helping transport the many mulch bags via wheelbarrow from across the park to where the beds were located.
Despite the wet weather the task was completed in good time. A few underestimated the weather and regretted not bringing gloves and raincoats but it was worth it in the end!
Saturday 8th November

Katy has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Katy is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Today 6 GoodGymer's ran or cycled to Greenfields Community Centre, close to Catton Park.
A few of us either ran or marshaled at Catton Parkrun before heading to the task.
The venue is surrounded by trees so the building's perimeter was completely covered in leaves. Armed with tools borrowed from Catton Grove (another regular GoodGym task) we got to work sweeping leaves & cutting back weeds.
After 1 hour we had filled up a whopping 27 bags of leaves!.
Woody also used his employment skills to lay out a mesh mat, essentially a black carpet, over the area we had cleared.
Shout Out to Katy joining us for her first session! Well done team.
