Richmond Report written by Liz (She/her)
An unexpected start to the evening as four members witnessed then helped with a traffic accident before handing over to police who arrived at the scene with blue lights on!
Thankfully the task itself was just around the corner where the rest of the group had already started digging holes to plant bluebells in the graveyard area that Ken has been working on.
After some careful digging in the dark, the group headed to the nearby Angel & Crown for a Taskforce catch-up, full of ideas and appreciation for what everyone does to make GG Richmond something special to be part of. ❤️

Hounslow Report written by Anastasia Hancock (she/her)
Last night we were back at Strand on the Green school to help out with a huge wood staining job. There were huts to treat, there were sheds, there were tables and chairs - who wooden want to help out?
Headtorches on, we divided up into a leaf clearing and wood staining teams and got straight to work. With so many hands making light work, it didn't take too long to get all the structures done. So while the sweeping team carried on scooping up every last leaf, the staining teams moved over to the sensory garden to work on the weeds.
Thistles, bind weed and dandelions dispatched, the end of the session was signalled by....was that a donkey? Not a sound we expected to hear in the middle of Chiswick, but given our recent animal sightings nothing surprises us anymore.
We downed tools and went round the corner for our fitness session which last night was speed based. Learning what it feels like to run at different paces between 60 and 100 % effort helps us control our running, maximise efficiency and stamina and helps us understand just how much we have left to give at the end of a run, race or parkrun! We started off at 50% effort and slowly built up, trying to increase our speed by 10% each time. There was some impressively controlled running from the team last night, and some even more impressive turns of speed. Great work everybody!
Next week we're back at Chiswick House - hope to see you then!
