Tonight we were back helping out Oasis Foundry School. We've done a fair few missions down there since last March, but this of course was the first group run.

We headed on our way, but meeting in a slightly different spot to usual, therefore it was a longer run than expected. Though this was partly due to taking the more scenic route along the canal.

Once arriving we were warmly greeted by Megan and Miriam who was meeting us at the task.

The job was to dig over the garden and pull all the weeds out. Everyone got to work doing a grand job, the soil looking very nicely dug over once done.

We then headed back to 1000 Trades, on a slightly shorter route this time. All in all we covered around 9k in total, so a good night's effort :)
