"That was a proper full-body workout!" ~ Tanya

We certainly put the "gym" into GoodGym at our visit to Ouseburn Trust today where despite the wet and cold conditions, six of us wrapped up (except Tom) and showed up to get the weekend off to a good start.

Brilliantly organised as always, task leader Dave met us with some clear tasks and tools at the ready.

Path clearing was on the agenda today and hopefully you can see from the photos what an amazing job we did in under an hour. This is an area that quickly becomes overgrown and it was definitely a battle against weeds, won!

Go and give Hazel a big cheer for her first ever GoodGym experience on such a terrible day, and to Manevasoa for her first Community Mission.

Join in with (hopefully drier) litter picking tomorrow if you can.
