Celebrating national volunteers week by getting out and volunteering, perfect!

Out friends at Railway Gardens are putting on an event June 19th for the local community to go and see what they are going to be all about. Our mission was to get their flyers all around the streets to let the community know about it.

Six of us met up just outside the site where the gardens will eventually be, divided out some flyers and hit the longest road - Railway Street. There were dogs, outside letter boxes, stiff gates and letterboxes just too small even for letters (confused).

We chatted to some locals sat outside their houses enjoying the evening sun and once Railway Street was complete headed over to our next one - Marion Street. We popped a few more through the street before meeting a lovely couple that were getting a special delivery of three leaflets as per the organisers instructions. They were a lovely couple who were very happy to see people to chat too, we let them know all about goodgym and discovered that they had seen us previously on a mission with one of our community garden tasks.

A quick group photo and it was time to go our separate ways and head home for dinner.
