7 GoodGymers weathered the heat and the hills to make a wonderful difference in Waterlow Park!

High up in the heights of North Camden sits a very special green space – Waterlow Park's meandering pathways are filled with trees and flowers – and it's a blissful haunt for everyone who's lucky enough to know about it.

Our fabulous group – of Alison, Jackie, John, Lydia (on their first good deed – welcome!), Steve, and Tom – assembled next to a wheelbarrow filled with spades, forks, and clippers.

The task was a classic for GoodGym – a good ol' dig-up + re-use.

Jackie, John, Steve, and Tom grabbed forks and energy and made miraculous work easing oodles of flowers from a patch that will soon be replanted!

Meanwhile, Alison and Lydia prepared a new patch (watering and digging holes) and then planted the recently dug-up flowers!

In short thrift, one patch was cleared and tidy, while another was prepared and planted. This team made the heavy work look light.

Thank you, everyone!
