There's something about St. Mary's
15 GoodGymers made their way to help the St. Mary's Church in Ealing.
- Tuesday, 18th of August 2020

What a wonderful evening!
It started with a small group of 6 hardy souls taking on a HIIT workout before the gardening and then we were joined by 9 other wonderful humans for the gardening part.
We were blessed with some glorious evening sunshine to help Vicar Steve in the church garden. Since lockdown the garden has been in need of a little TLC and although they have some amazing local volunteers (including Alex who was on hand last night to show us what needed doing and give us endless thank yous!) there was still a lot to get done.
Jo joined us for her first every GoodGym deed - welcome Jo! Go give her a cheer!
This is how it went down:
- Chris, Jenni & Jo worked to trim the overgrowth around one of the trees
- Tracey & Marieke weeded around the grave stones
- Sevan & Milly dug out a border
- Ellie & Emily did some serious clearance
- Claire chopped back all the overhanging plants from on the pathways
- Mike, Shan, Chris J & Callum all worked together to dig out and clear a large area ready for new plants
We worked hard for an hour before lots of us went off in search of some eat out to help out action. If eating also helps, we're there!
