Tomorrow Welling Station will celebrate its 130th birthday and 200 years of the railway.

Tonight we ran, walked and cycled to the station to help with final preparations for their party.

First we swept 🧹🧹🧹 the approach road where stalls and displays will be put up. So many cigarette butts!

Then we sealed goody bags that will be given to winners of a competition to design railway-themed posters 🚂. All the lovely entries are on display in the ticket hall. We hope passengers will pause to appreciate them as they pass through the area.

Next, we pinned flyers promoting local community organisations onto a noticeboard that will be on display at the Discover Welling stand 📌📌📌. Of course, we included some GoodGym leaflets!

And we watered the flowerbeds 🌻🌷.

It was great to have Julie with us for her first GoodGym task. Having worked with us through Discover Welling on many tasks, we're thrilled to have you as part of the GG team.

The station team could not have been more welcoming and friendly. They've worked really hard to put up bunting, stuff goody bags ready to give away to travelers, and get things looking fab.

Happy birthday Welling Station 🎈🥳!

We all met up outside the Welling Library ready to tackle the persistent weeds 🌱 sprouting alongside the building. Some of us run/walked, others came straight from work.

We set to work straight away and soon got the area looking spick and span. There were some lovely forget-me -nots growing along with some small yellow flowers 🌼 There is always a bonus when doing these tasks. You just have to look out for them. Joining forces with the WWF.
