8 GoodGymers worked with Wonford Planters to weed and tidy up three huge planters on Tuesday evening. The planters line Burnthouse Lane, and some wonderful plants and herbs had become enveloped in grass and some particularly thorny thistles!

We ripped out the weeds and chopped up some well established unwanted plants with tools, clearing the planters for beautiful new plants and flowers to be planted by the local community team.

After an hour's hard work we headed off to Ludwell Valley park to complete an enjoyable mix of fartleks, speed training, circuits, and a jolly nice chat.

A very special shout out this week to Craig Barber who has completed 3 Community Missions in 3 days!

We'll be back next week to work on the rest of the planters!
