Two GoodGymers turned up to cut halos around a feature tree. Ken explained what this meant which was to remove the scrub around the tree to make it more prominent and reduce the competition from the adjacent trees. So in effect you are making a ring around the tree or cutting a halo around the tree… One GoodGymer on his first task (welcome Rowan!) was initiated into GoodGym by cutting angels features (halos) around a white popular tree. We tackled the magnificent white popular tree to the drip line taking all the scrub out in quick time and stacked it up for the Friends of Hatherop Park and Richmond Council to send in their woodchipper to finish the job. Task done, halos earned and one more step closer to earning our wings but Rowan already earned his halo.

What a happy afternoon running around East Twickenham and St Margaret's to solve the clues and track down amazing treasure hunt creators Susannah, Beth and Monika!

Congratulations to winning team Anita, Adam and John who even put in a sprint finish, despite the lack of anyone else even being near the finish line! And a special mention to Rowan who joined in for the first time at GoodGym, right in at the deep end!

Thank you so much Monika, Suze and Beth, what a wonderful way to wrap up a summer of doing good in Richmond ❤️
