15 Happy Hackney GoodGymers ran 4K to help The Market Nursary clear their outside space so that the children could have a better outside play environment.

Thanks for looking after me tonight!! Legs very much appreciated not running. You guys are the best!! Big shout out to ** Rich and George** for leading the way!!

A short 1.78 loop according to Rich brought us to The Market Nursary which serves as the communities main early years childcare provider for a great range of little ones many of which from very difficult beginnings.

With so many cuts to services the knock on effects are being felt and the maintenance of the Nursary is not what it once was. So we burst in to clear the front and back outside spaces!

Sweeping, litter picking, Gardening, bagging huge bundles of leafs to allow the children to have a clean, brighter and more useable outside space.

45 minutes of team work and we had filled 20 black bags transforming the outside spaces!!

A slightly longer loop back to base finished off an enjoyable evening!! See you all next week for a visit to Hackney Wick garden!

Early shout out for a post Hackney Half group social for Tuesday 21st of May!!
