Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Emma (She/they/them)
A whole bunch of wonderful GoodGymers turned up to help Alex and Nadia with the task of getting the playground ready for its grand reopening in a few weeks time.
Play areas were swept, cleaned and power washed, terrorising beasts were painted and brought back to life, the vegetable garden was tended to and growing pyramids created from bamboo, the shed was painted, and vast trees/bushes and parts of the garden was weeded. All done with lots of style and vigour.
Alex joked that he won’t need us for a while. I think we’ll be going back every week for a while, which is good news because it’s always such a pleasure to help out there.
Paula even stayed later to play ping pong.
Weavers Adventure Playground (Weavers) is a play space and community centre tucked away in the north east corner of Weavers Fields in Bethnal Green. Weavers has been a pillar of the community, playing an essential role in the health and wellbeing of thousands of children since its foundation in 1974.
