Saturday before last (sorry for the delayed report!) a handful of chirpy goodgymers gathered at the slopes for our usual hack n slash sessions, only to find that the area has been overrun with green grass, cow parsley and all sorts of vibrant vegetation. It's been lovely to see the progress made over the last few months, turning an apocalyptic bramble wasteland into a meadow fit for luscious new flowers and fauna!

The team got to work with their preferred bramble and weed destroying tools, whilst having a good old natter under the sunshine. We also welcomed Marion and James to their first ever Goodgym session! Both of them made a stellar effort lopping the stairway, we hope they come back again for more great work soon. :)

Thanks for coming along everyone, amazing effort! See you at the slopes again soon.
