Tower Hamlets Report written by Laura Williams
A dry evening saw 8 GoodGymers gathering in the pretty St Leonard’s Priory Park in Bromley-By-Bow.
Kicking the evening off with a short fitness session around the planters, we ensured core was fired up and balance challenged by the time this evening’s task commenced.
Our job tonight was to continue the construction of a small hazel fence around the wilding area.
A pretty, useful area, this patch serves as a great habitat for pollinators, as well as being the home to blackberry brambles and wheat.
The team started at the back of the park cutting branches for the fencing and the fence stakes.
Following the disturbance of what appeared to be a small wasps’ nest, half of the team promptly headed to the wilding area to start the preparation of the stakes.
It was a fun and physical task: team members cut hazel, sawed stakes, dug holes and weaved the fence.
With just ten minutes to go, there was a small area of the fence still to be completed - minus any fencing material... Ivo headed to the far side of the park returning with a good hazel stash, before Larry made the executive decision that a nearby Sycamore tree would provide the final few stakes.
The fence was finished shortly after 8, with the team posing for one final pic by the new fence.
A lovely night in East London, well done everyone.
…And a big warm welcome to Sophie, who joined us for her first GoodGym. Great effort Sophie, look forward to seeing you again soon!
Next week, we’re heading to Wapping, to join the Friends of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park team for a big gardening session!
Until then.
