GG Lambeth were back last night visiting Jennie Lee Garden to help out our friends at Lambeth GP Food Co-Op as we continued to move the compost from the front to the back in the garden where the octo and nonagenerian patients can use it!

We were delighted to have Adam back with us this evening after a little time away following a health scare (welcome back!!) as the crew met at Papa's ready to run and cycle our way down to the task. The group was also fortunate enough to meet a rare Hungarian Sheepdog as Dyfed from the committee popped by on an evening walk!

Dan, Tilly, Fi and AA Yianny headed out across Brixton on a slightly longer run which makes this task so enjoyable as you really do get a cardio and pump session in and made good time arriving just as Heidi was pulling up on her back to meet us, armed with four short handled shovels (always handy in South London!)

We grabbed our wheelbarrows (including one now nicknamed Willy Wonka due to a flat / wonky wheel) and set about moving as much of the 4 one tonne bags' compost as we could. Without blowing our own horn the group managed in 40 mins to bring 3 bags inside and top them back up to almost full meaning there is only bag left - a fantastic effort from the team and Heidi.

And so after much enjoyable conversation, the saving of little cats lives and plenty of grunt work we were done. A big thank you to all and I will see you at the next one!
