It was another hilly run up to meet Angela & Rachel at Arbourthorne Community Primary Growing Project.

This time we were there in the light to be able to see how amazingly well the project is coming on with so much growing now we have the sun on our side!

This also meant there was plenty for us to get stuck into!

We started with some biscuits (thanks Angela) and then got stuck into some plant pot moving.

Once this was done we split into different groups with some doing some weeding and some watering, turning over beds and sorting the compost heap out.

It was great to have GG tourist explorer Steph Ducat with us again and also to see Yvette back with us again! Hope you can both make it back again soon!

Until next time, happy running! :)

It was fantastic to welcome new runner Millie along to last nights run, we hope you enjoyed it and you come back again Millie!

It was a very short uphill round the corner type run (a popular one) round to Common Thread at Union Street this week.

We met Fran and other volunteers from Common Thread as they were mid sort, unfortunately with a broken elevator which made things a little more complicated than usual. No matter, we still get stuck in!

Rather than prepping for a clothes exchange this time we were helping to sort requested items from other charities in Sheffield including:

Ben's Centre - A homelessness charity City of Sanctuary - An asylum seekers charity Sheffield Working Women's Opportunities Project (SWWOP) - A charity providing intensive support, outreach, and harm reduction services to women involved in sex work

Each charity had different clothing requests and we did our best to sort through clothes to find appropriate donations for them.

It's always a great welcome at Common Thread and we look forward to coming back to see them for the next one!

Until next time, happy running! :)

It was great to welcome Phil and Helen to the GG pack.

Big thanks to Annie for welcoming everyone before dashing to Theatre practice and then the family meal! Busy lady!

We headed down to the start of Gerry's section of the Transpenine Trail to meet her and William and get tooled up ready for litter picking.

We got to it heading out of the city the opposite way to last time. On the whole things were looking fairly clear with some hot spots along the way.

Once done, Gerry talked us through the Fix My Street app and how to report various concerns to the council via the app. Very modern.

Until next time. Happy running! :)
