It was our first group run to Thorlands of the year and there was 7 of us for the run (with Paul and Rosemary meeting us there). We took the same route that we took for our visit back in November.

Simon was there to meet us with the tools ready. We split off into two groups with one group clearing the leaves off the path in the Kitchen Garden to create a new pile that we covered with cardboard and a pallet to help it mulch down faster. The other group ran wheelbarrows of woodchip from the Community Garden which we then spread on the cleared path.

Simon sends thanks for our work and we’ll see him again later in Feb.

everything is fine!

Last night 12 of us met at Old Spike @ 6:45pm for the Welcome Speech. After a warm up outside in the cold we split into two groups. Paulin led Sam, Daryl and Emma to Dulwich Village to flyer for GROAD. I led the rest of the group on a short run to Salvation Army Nunhead with Maria back marking. While there we cleaned the kids toys for their playgroup. Maria from Salvation Army Nunhead was very grateful for our help as it allows her to spend more time with the families who need her support. After a sucessful session we all met back at the Old Spike for our cool down.

We met at the sports club only to find that nothing was waiting for us to sort. After hasty check-ins with GROAD and other GoodGym buddies, Mansur departed on his trusty steed and Emma hot-footed it to another task round the corner.
