Weight lifting
4 GoodGymers made their way to help the Foss Fairy Trail in York.

Four Goodgymers braved the heat and met Tracy and her team to clear some rubbish from the side of the river Foss. A few items had been dumped - a big rusty seat which looked like it was from a mini bus, a long heavy plank of wood and a few other rusty bits of metal. With the help of a wheelbarrow we shifted the items down the path for a couple of hundred meters to the bridge where is was getting collected by the council or being recycled into a seat. The journey was all the more enjoyable because of all the little fairy houses hiding along the path! After 45 mins we were all done and I got the pleasure of meeting baby Freddie on the way home! Thanks to us The Foss Fairy Trail, a public river walk with a difference is now safer for children to enjoy.

Lovely!
I was amazed with the enthusiasm and speed of the ladies! Thank you so much! It has made a huge difference to the trail and we can now utilise the cleared area now it is safe :-)
