Today the GoodGym 6 we're back at Belle Isle Park - there after a shirt notice task change - to make even more steps in creating a new wildflower area. We cleared the top layer of grass and ensured the good soil remained, very nearly ready to plant some seeds.

A very pleasant evening, a bright moon, a flock of geese flying in their V formation and spying some bats all made for a fascinating night.

One Goodgymer faced the mozzies at Belle Isle Park on Tuesday evening to continue the work to rewild the local park. This time the mozzie's were at bay and lots of roots were pulled to ensure the diversity of wildflowers next year.

Today we were with St Lawrence Church, lending a hand with their fundraising fete. We helped set up the day, ensuring stall-holders had tables, chairs and covers, Set up the BBQ for food and made sure all had refreshments throughout the day. A very successful day, ended with help to clear and packdown. £1333 raised for the new heaters, exceeding expecations!

Tonight 5 GoodGymers were living the park life dream, helping clear nettles, brambles and weeds to make space for a wildflower area.

Not to be deterred by mosquito attacks, we all sprayed up and double layered and survived generally un-bitten! Even if some of us resembled crime-scene cleaners!

Today we were back at Belle Isle Park, continuing the ground clearing work ready for more wildflower seeding. A great effort from all, pretty sweaty work moving the cuttings. Not so much fun being the mosquito buffet but hopefully not too many bites!

Tonight, 5 GoodGymers were back at Belle Isle Park to carry on the prep work for future seeding. We were thrilled to be joined by first-timer Joe, who put us all to shame with clearing the cuttings! A big welcome and thank you!

We'll be back at the park next week to carry on the work!
