Walk Wheel Cycle Trust is working with Transport for West Midlands and Birmingham City Council to enable more people to walk, wheel or cycle to schools in the Stirchley area and within their local neighbourhood.

Tonight a group of 5 of us led expertly by Laura popped up flyers to inform locals of an engagement event run by the charity. Alongside this Laura also took photos of some of the infrastructure in the area to feedback to the charity how easy it is for locals to access the area on foot or wheels.

After a hot ~5k run, it was to the pub for refreshments!

Three of us met at Carrs Lane Church on this sunny evening in the city centre! After some litter pickers went walkabout, we thought fast and got hold of some dustpans and brushes to get the job done. It was great to welcome Ali to his first task with Goodgym and thanks to James for coming along to help too. They were both speedy picking litter across the different grassy sections while I was on bin bag duty as they emptied in many dustpans of rubbish. We had a full bag of litter before too long and the grass by Carrs Lane Church was lovely and clear.

Tonight a team of 5 took on a very relaxing 4km run up the River Rea Valley Path picking up litter. We managed one full bag and the path looking lovely.

Big kudos to Rich, James and Laura, fresh from their successes in the Birmingham 10K and Half Marathon!
