Tug of war with cables

2 GoodGymers made their way to help the Friends of Farsley Rehoboth in Leeds.

Led by Gemma

This morning two GoodGym members cycled over to Farsely Rehoboth to help out with their restoration work.

Suzie and Gemma helped to get the site, which is undergoing extensive clearing and renovation work, supplied with electricity. The electricity supply will be used for power tools and for supplying hot water for volunteers, amongst other essential things. Suzie and Gemma did this by working with other volunteers to coax and pull a cable through a 200m section of underground piping - like a controlled tug of war.

Suzie and Gemma were also shown around the rest of the site and were able to see how the work of other GoodGym members had made a difference.

GoodGym Leeds will be returning to the Rehoboth on May 23rd!
