It was all change for Bristol GoodGym as a our planned task was cancelled for Covid. Time for Plan B!

The regular Friends team at Dame Emily Park hadn't been able to get out and pick so were really grateful for some extra hands.

It's a great park with something for everyone - kids' playground, green space, community garden, huuuge skatepark and street art space. And each has their own litter profile!

Lots of chatting and separating recycling from litter made for a very productive 45 minites, plus a bit of bindweed pulling and peaky sycamore seedlings removed. A fab evening out followed with GoodGym Eats at Pieminister and finally home with full tummies.
