crickewood clean and gleam ! ! We cleaned the sign? the starts and weeded the roadside

Samina, Tabitha and Pete met at Beer n Burger and jogged about 3km to the Abbey Community Centre where Jason told them what needed to be done in the garden. We met Beatriz there and Lee arrived soon after. The garden is lovely with great beds, a greenhouse and loads of pots around the edges. Pete and Beatriz were watering with hosepipe and watering cans.,later joined by Samina. Lee Tabitha and Samina were weeding. It was a nice evening and lots got done. We walked back and had a nice drink at Beer n Burger (and Lee had chips, naturally). Great job!

Samina, Tabitha, Chris, Pete and Christian joined Jack at Corsham Sheltered Housing in Wembley to distribute soil into the raised beds to get them ready for planting in May. Much time was spent shovelling soil into wheelbarrows then taking them up to the raised beds and tipping the soil in. We welcomed Christian for the first time who came all the way from Kingston and did a great job. At the end we put the tools away. The beds are looking much better now. Well done everyone.

Tabitha , Chris , Beatriz , Nouri and Pete helped Jack from Seeds of growth shift around 1500 litres of soil into a raised bed We took it in turns filling barrows , walking them to the beds and shifting the soil .

This will help elderly residents be able to plant flowers this Spring .

There is plenty more to do so we will be coming back twice more: https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/goodgym-brent-moving-soil-into-raised-beds-for-elderly-residents-in-brent and https://www.goodgym.org/happenings/goodgym-brent-bank-holiday-soil-shifting-and-shaking
