GoodGym runners Tall Tom and Celine joined Sustrans and River Stewardship volunteers on a gloriously sunny day by the river Don near Oughtibridge. We cut back brambles, ivy, picked up litter (an insane amount of poo bags!) and mostly cleared encroaching soil from the path. We nearly doubled the width of the path in places! Awesome vegan flapjacks were shared to sustain us through the morning and by the time we'd finished, we'd freed about a kilometre worth of cycling track;in the light, it looked just like a beautifully clean and inviting red carpet! Working by the mighty river Don in the spring sunshine was a treat and we hope more people can join us at the next Sustrans volunteer day!
