Helping to maintain this lovely care home by the river

Sat 27th Jun at 10:30am
A beautifully warm and sunny morning welcomed 3 regular Richmond GGers for a follow up session at the Sea Scouts.
The task was to apply another coat of teak oil to the boathouse doors close by to the White Cross pub, after the task of sanding and applying the first coat on Monday.
We got the job done in super quick time and stood back to admire our handiwork. Then it was off for a refreshing drink in the sunshine and the start of the weekend!

Richmond Report written by Liz (She/her)
It's that time of year when we head to Richmond riverside for one of our favourite tasks! We have been helping with this for the past six years and it's a fast, rewarding mission. We do it in two sessions with the first taking the longest as we sand and clean the doors before brushing on the teak oil and watching the doors come back to life.
This evening we headed to the boathouse via some exercises on Richmond Green: squatting, lunging, bear crawling and side-stepping our way down towards the river.
Upon arrival at the boathouse we discovered they have recently had significant damage on the doors when a van has seemingly reversed into it and left a tear through the wood and pulled off the locks. It was a sorry sight but it made us more determined to complete the makeover!
With so many hands in action, we completed the task quickly which even left time to head to the pub for refreshment, to see Messi score at the world cup and chat before the warm rain came!

Kingston upon Thames Report written by Claire Dunne
On a warm Saturday morning 4 GoodGymers arrived at the GoodGym flowerbed in Canbury gardens to give it a little tidy and then plant lots of plants Claire had grown. It was good to see the plants form the previous planting session still surviving the hot weather and lots of colour already.
After clearing weeds and leaves Claire laid out the plants with taller ones towards the back and every one dug holes and planted them nice and deeply. Emily and Adam then headed to the river for water to water them in. After lots of watering by Jeanna and a few trips to the river everything had received a good drink.
Lets hope the plants survive the heat wave and bring lots of colour to the flowerbed.
