Two first time missioners - Lina and Sarah - and mission veteran Rodney, ran on a splendidly sunny Saturday morning to do good in Hackney by giving Mr V's garden some TLC.

Mr V has a great garden space but he hasn't been able to look after it lately due to some health problems. Nothing a few gloved up GoodGymmers couldn't fix. With rakes at the ready and instructions to leave anything that looks like mint alone, we got stuck in. We cleared away tons of rubbish, binned piles and piles of weeds, and raked loads of leaves so Mr V's garden is now ready for him to plant some beautiful flowers and tomatoes in for the summer. We even managed to fill a little hole under Mr V's fence to stop some cheeky little foxes that have been getting in!

We loved chatting to Mr V and hearing all about his travels. He was so pleased with the job we had done and told us how great he thought GoodGym was. To quote him directly, "GoodGym is an amazing organisation full of amazing people!" Well, we think Mr V is amazing and we hope he enjoys his new garden!
