Retro-picking
6 GoodGymers made their way to help the Mill Hill Park Residents’ Association in Ealing.

Another record-breaking turnout from GoodGym at the Mill Hill Park litterpick! Having six GoodGymers was quite impressive, especially when the community mission collided with the parkrun start time! Some of us, on the way to Acton, met our GoodGym friends heading out to run or volunteer at the Gunnersbury parkrun.
We were wondering if there would be enough litter for all of us but Elisabeth from Acton Litter Collective was very happy with our numbers because many of the 9 am regulars were away that week. She brought us additional litterpickers, welcomed new joiners, and tried to remember all the names.
We split into pairs and headed out into Acton backstreets to search for more interesting finds than the ubiquitous cigarette butts. We came back with artifacts from our not so distant past, from school accessories to technology from late 20th century.
Notable findings:
- Bike computer
- Sexual Healing CD case
- 3/4 of a VHS cassette
- J keyboard key
- Set square & ruler
- Sports shoes
- Dogs demanding treats
- A snail colony
