Putting 'cleanliness is next to godliness' into practice
3 GoodGymers made their way to help the Derby Parks in Derby.
- Tuesday, 25th of June 2024
- Led by Rachel Carthy
Ashley, Pete and Rachel met with David and some members of the parish from St Matthew's Church for a litter picking session around Darley Abbey.
Pick of the night went to Pete early on, as he found what was potentially a character toy from Peppa Pig. This was found in the church grounds and placed in an obvious location in case the owner and their parents returned.
The team went on a new route that they hadn't tried before, thanks to David from the church for this. Lots of food packaging, drinks containers and cigarette butts were collected.
Grateful for the temperature dropping from what it had been during the day, the team chatted about the upcoming England Vs Slovenia Euros match and upcoming GoodGym sessions that people were booked on and looking forward to.
Thanks as always to everyone who came along and made a difference to our community.
