Six Goodgymers made a return journey to the Oadby Youth Club last night. A really lovely task making an overgrown area into a place where some of the many users of the youth club can access.

It didn’t take long for the team to set about the undergrowth with saws, loppers, rakes and hands to clear another section.

Jimmy started to make a wall using the cut off branches which will still provide homes for the birds, inhabitants and insects .

A welcome cuppa and biscuits were provided by the caretaker before the team were hard at it again. A really good task and I’m sure the Goodgym team will be back.
