Success cemented!
WOW what a mission!
We might have slightly over run but it was totally worth it to see the job done. 10 tons of crushed concrete shovelled into bags and carried up four flights of stairs.
Well deserved ice cream treat at the end thanks to the Southbank centre made it even more worth it.
Over the last couple of months Good Gym have been supporting Grounded Ecotherapy volunteers to get the garden ready to reopen after 20 months of closure. The work has really paid off and the garden opens next week and is looking stunning!
Huge thank you everyone for making it happen.

Path to success at Southbank Centre's rooftop garden
Returning to the fabulous Southbank Centre roof Garden, continuing on our mission to help get it ready for opening again to the public. We'll be doing some general gardening duties including weeding and painting planters as well as moving crushed concrete to make new pathway.
Please bring your own gloves if you have, or can provide you some.

Delivering ingredients for carers of vulnerable children
Can you lend a hand delivering bags of ingredients in order to facilitate a Zoom cook along with families supporting vulnerable kids? The bag will be about 5kg, so a bike would be very helpful here!
The recipients will be kinship carers and the children they care for- kinship carers are family members or connected people who step in to care for children who would otherwise enter the care system permanently, or be adopted outside of the family. This means lots of grandparents but also aunties, godparents, sometimes adult siblings. They care for often traumatised children and have to manage very complex family dynamics and often loss of income and housing problems as a result of their caring role. They are the forgotten carers of this country and don't get any of the support that foster carers and adopters get so this opportunity will mean a lot.
You will be meeting Anna-Lou outside the front of Battersea Arts Centre at 2pm, where she will give you the ingredients and an address in either Balham, Battersea, Stockwell or Wandsworth. Her number is 07792320549 in case of any problems. If you do sign up to this one please do feel you can commit as Anna-Lou will be coming especially to meet us with a bag ready prepared for each GGer!
