Report written by Suyash Abhyankar
Date of Activity: 8 July 2025 Location: The Esther Project Garden, Leamington Allotment Participants: 5 GoodGym volunteers + several site representatives Overview of Tasks: The primary goal of this session was to assist in revitalizing the allotment site, aiming to create a welcoming and serene space for the ladies who use it. Activities Completed: We focused our efforts on essential maintenance tasks to improve the immediate usability and appearance of the allotment: • Weeding: Significant progress was made in clearing weeds from between the wooden planting pits. • Grass Trimming: The grass around the general area was trimmed, contributing to a tidier environment. • Pit Cleaning: Assistance was provided in thoroughly cleaning one of the planting pits. • Waste Removal: We helped transport a large skip bag of debris to the waiting van, clearing accumulated waste from the site. Tasks Not Completed (Due to Time Constraints): While good progress was made on the essential groundwork, the following tasks outlined in the activity description could not be addressed during this session: • Cherry picking • Building a compost store using provided pallets • Painting the shed • Painting the bath
