How many GoodGymers does it take to put up a sign? :) :) :) :) :)
5 GoodGymers made their way to help the Friends of Whirlowbrook Park - Plant Swap in Sheffield.
- Saturday, 2nd of July 2022
- Led by Sheffield runner
This morning we helped out Friends of Whirlow Brook Park (FoWBP) in their summer Plant Swap/ Sale event set up to help fund new bat boxes for the park.
First things first - directions! Our trusty group of GoodGymers got to work erecting signs to guide the public to the location.
Highlights included:
- A morning with GG friends
- Meeting FoWBP volunteers :)
- Icecream for sale to support the bats - so we had to purchase of course, eating icecream to support wildlife - win-win
- A large variety of plants for perusing - with our GG volunteers purchasing a fair few
- Learning fun facts to support bats, and posing as bats in our GG and FoWBP joint picture
- Explaining to FoWBP the work GoodGym does and how we can help with events/ gardening volunteering as future GG Community Missions - they said they would be in touch :)
- And finally, post community mission lunch at the new cafe at Whirlow Hall Farm - we definitely recommend a trip to :)
See you again :)

What a team. Fantastic. We hope Good Gym Sheffield will return to Whirlowbrook Park for the 2023 Plant Swap.
