Everyone clearly had increased energy from the mass chocolate consumption over Easter as loads of people brought their documents to be checked so they can do our work with older people. Woohoo!

We started the evening by celebrating George who hit 100 big ones. Nice one George!

A small group went off with John to dig some soil out of planters at a GP Surgery in Stockwell. We'll be moving the planters to another surgery and re-filling them with soil quite soon.

The rest were back to Clapham Common to continue our work making a wildflower meadow. This week, we got to turn the soil from the two strips already made and we planted some flowers! It's a true honour that GoodGym got to lay the first plants in this lovely new space. You can see a nice tweet with photos of our handiwork here.

We did some stretches back at base and look forward to next week being even lighter than this one!

Colour Your Common Initiative
Creating a wildflower haven on Clapham Common

Colour Your Common is the initiative of Clapham Common Management Advisory Committee and aims to create a wildflower haven on Clapham Common where wildlife can flourish and people can picnic, relax, read a book do yoga, or whatever else takes there fancy. It will consist of 2m wide strips planted with indigenous wild flowers, interspersed with bands of mown grass. The project aims to increase biodiversity on the common and create a garden open for all.
