Hola! Virginia here from the Barking & Dagenham team sharing the latest from our community partner AbPhab Youth Club.

🌧️ We’re busy turning rainy Mondays into a weekly highlight at the AbPhab Youth Club ✨

🧑🏽‍🌾 Week 2 was all about the real work. We spent a solid hour tackling weeds and debating everything from panel shows to “what actually counts as a weed anyway?” (Spoiler: if it’s in the way, it’s out!). ☘️

🏁 We finished off the session with hot drinks and a snack, thanks to the wonderful team at AbPhab – the perfect reward for a rainy evening’s work. 🍵

Fancy doing something a bit different on a Monday evening? Come join us! Every Monday in March we are getting the AbPhab Youth Club garden ready for spring.

See you next Monday for more gardening, gathering and good times –come rain or shine!
