We watering can help!
10 GoodGymers made their way 1.5km to help the FLORENCE GREEN and RUSS Community Housing in Lewisham.

Double task night which meant we had a couple of people heading to Florence Green to tackle the watering and the rest of us heading to RUSS Community Housing to tackle the weeding. And a couple of us had just come from TRAID. We were helping so many wonderful organisations last night.
It was Lindsay's 50th good deed this evening. Congratulations, we can't wait to see you sporting that black tshirt soon!!
Onto the tasks both were a short run away. At Florence Green there was lots of watering the saplings.
At RUSS there was lots of heaving lifting! We had soil to shift, giant piles of weeds to shift and woodchip to shift but we got it all done and made excellent progress on the woodchip!
Vic and Sarah made excellent progress on the weeding except when it got too dark and they could no longer tell what was a weed and what was a small tree.
We then created my favourite group run photo ever which was unplanned and then some of us headed to Mamma Dough for some post-group run pizza!
Don't forget we have a lot of weekend sessions at RUSS if anyone fancies it.
It's also definitely head torch time of year now and I will be bringing the lights for outdoor tasks.
