Well that was an enjoyable one! GoodGymers came together to help an honourable local project claim back some wasteland so it can be used for community projects and to regenerate the woodland that neighbours the plot.

Jo was there first and straight into the work! We arrived in 2s and 3s and wasted no time in getting stuck in to help Anthony and Dan of Little World Market. Little World Market is a vegan cafe and market that is keen to help the surrounding community with projects like this.

It was a pleasure to help like minded people and working well as a team we cleared back a large area of overgrown brambles. With an old aeroplane chassis in the middle of the field we couldn't help recognise that this project was unique, a pilot project even! The site is now in a much better position for putting to good use.

Being a naturally curious bunch, we couldn't sign off on this task before trying the delicious food Little World Market make. A welcome, warm treat! Thanks to all for your time and successful effort
