We joined other volunteers at the Roots4Life community hub for a litterpick around the local area.

The organisers asked our posse of four GoodGymers to head towards the station where there was a particularly untidy area to tackle.

We nattered and picked up litter along the road as we went, then spotted an area around an overflowing clothes bank that clearly needed some tlc.

There were clothes and shoes strewn all over the place with litter accumulated among them. We tidied all the clothing items into bags and hoped they would be collected before anyone rifled through them. The rubbish went into our litter bags. It looked so much better when we finished.

Meanwhile, Rachel who arrived later, litterpicked nearer to the hub with her little Goodgymer.

As the alloted time drew to a close we all headed back to Roots4Life where delicious homemade cakes and warming hot drinks awaited.
