6 Goodgymmers joined forces on a chilly Sunday morning to help transform an area on the side of the Westbury Banks Nature Reserve in Wood Green.

If it's worth doing, it's worth doing (stair)well

Our Goodgymmers joined volunteers from the Friends of Westbury Banks Nature Reserve and the Noel Park Big Locals for a big clear out on the side of the Reserve.

It was a big job but one we met with aplomb. The team removed an unsafe metal post, copious amount of ivy and weeds, trimmed the trees around the staircase, carried out a litter pick of frankly gargantuan proportions, swept the foliage and debris, and we even found the time to put up some shiny new signs around the Reserve.

Not bad for a chilly morning's work!

Join us on Wednesday, when we'll be helping out at the Haringey Learning Partnership and then having one of our world infamous* socials afterwards!

  • I jest, we are all rather civilised ;)
