On a pleasantly warm evening, four GGers set to work attacking weeds and moss in the gardens of Oakwood Community Centre, led by Carole, the community centre's chair.
Gwyn attempted a Santa impression with his hoe-hoe-hoe, and Ashley and Pete sought out every last weed in the flower beds and between the setts whilst Tracey prodded the cracks between the paving stones for pesky dandelions.
It was lovely to catch up with everyone, and we're all enthusiastic about the return of parkrun on the 24th July (not to mention the associated cups of tea afterwards - Masala Chai for Ashley and April Snow for Gwyn).
Thanks to everyone for an enjoyable evening.
Oakwood Community Centre is a hub of the local community and available for hire. We already have lots of groups and activities who run lots of different classes and groups in the centre.

Hall maintenance will help to extend the life of Mickleover Memorial Hall. This will allow them to invest more in projects such as a kitchenette and disabled toilet to make the building more useful and accessible to the local community.
