Kingston upon Thames Report written by Rachel White
The third task of the day took us to Growbaby to help move the DLAG donations. They had very kindly held two collections outside Waitrose in Surbiton and Kingston and collected a large amount of nappies, wipes, sanitary pads, baby wash and baby food. This was kindly brought to Growbaby but needed to taken downstairs so it wasn't in the way of attending groups which is why GoodGym Kingston were asked to help.
We met at 4pm and as Michelle and Petra counted and logged the donations, Rachel, Dave and Tanya started to move the items downstairs. It was just a tidy up session so we were done and dusted in the hour as the main sorting will take place on Tuesday evening. Come and join us if you can help out.
Special thanks to Petra for setting up the task for DLAG and GoodGym Kingston to benefit the local families of Growbaby Kingston. Over £1300 worth of donations were gratefully received - it will make such a positive impact to families in need.

It’s been a while since we have been to Hogsmill garden and what a lovely surprise to find the garden bathing in morning sun, in bloom and smiling Brian with a list of tasks in hand. Once we got few rather quick tasks such as turning a pot with a tree around and moving a Xmas tree out of the way, we got stuck in with couple of bigger jobs. Getting ready for relaying new paving, Rachel armed with a pick axe lifted the old slabs up whilst the rest of us stacked them, based on size, behind the greenhouse. Petra and Jade took to levelling the ground to receive a wooden raised flowerbed whilst Helen (welcome to your first task) and Rachel were getting some nice soil ready to fill the flowerbed with. In the end, all 4 us took turns shaking, shovelling, digging and moving the wheelbarrow to get the planter ready for potato planting. Jobs all done, Brian rewarded us with various herbs to take home. Thank you. See you in a month!

3 Goodgymmers met on a sunny Sunday morning to help Andrea with weeding a local patch of green. Andrea was very knowledgeable about all the different plants and bushes (many new to me & Rachel). We took a segment each, focusing on pulling out green alkanet whilst trying to leave the bluebells in. Bags filled up, pavement and road swept, we managed to complete the task and Andrea was happy. Well done Farzeen on your 5th task and thanks to Rachel for visiting from Sheffield.
