Water tree-tment time
16 GoodGymers made their way 1.0km to help the Slough Borough Council Neighbourhood Services in Slough.

It's been hot recently hasn't it! So hot that newly planted trees are drying out through lack of rain water. Slough Council has put a plea out to its residents to help with this situation! And who else wood only be too happy to help? The GoodGym team of course!
So on our walks, strolls and runs we have been topping up the supply of water with our own water. I've seen milk containers, water bottles, fizzy drinks bottles and large water containers all filled with fresh drinking water for the trees.
So well done to everyone who did their bit ! Great to see other GoodGym members from local areas branching out and getting involved.
Did you know?
You can tell the temperature by counting a cricket’s chirps!;
A heatwave can make train tracks bend!;
A 2003 heatwave turned grapes to raisins before they were picked from the vine!;
Lightning often follows a volcanic eruption;
Raindrops can be the size of a housefly and fall at more than 30kmph.
This same community mission is being relisted for August! So pleas sign up and help the trees!
