Was nice seeing Samantha at the BVA Family Fun Day and help various organisations pack up. The Family Fun day was a huge success with a lot of great things for kids to do. The DJing was certainly something.

We had a great crew at this weeks session, vibes started high with the music going and setting off from the Social Club.

Luke was back for his second session and it was lovely seeing everyone else as well!

We were super productive filling 6 bags of litter from around Kings Furlong up towards Brookvale, unfortunately we didn't find any underwear for national underwear day, but we did find a cache of moldy bread, empty engine oil and a shopping trolley which Yazid naturally got into.

I had a great time joining the Dwelling Place for their Community Volunteering day.

The Dwelling Place is so close to finishing their garden and I joined them and provided some manual assistance carrying rocks and bricks with Chris to the front of the house to be taken away.

In the meantime Charlotte, Susie and more volunteers put together the garden

Last night we were back to our roots and did our first litter pick for a long time, and more importantly got back in the playground!

While it was a hot day it thankfully cooled in the evening and there was a great breeze to make it overall a very nice evening.

We had Luke join us for his first session and he immediately fit right in and had a great work effort.

We left the Social club with Sammi & Tazmin down towards the King of Wessex where we were meeting Yazid and picked up litter on the way.

We are starting to get famous in the area as we were recognised and thanked for all the work that we do. From the King of Wessex we went up the hill down to the school and then under the A30 towards Kingsmill.

While we collected plenty of rubbish Basingstoke is looking very tidy and we went long stretches unable to find any rubbish.

We had a lot of fun flyering last night, it was great to have Nathan back and bringing along Pia for their first session!

We met at the Rucstall Community Centre and flyered through the Black Dam area with flyers for the Tidy Town Throwdown which is happening on the 30th of July, BVA's Fun Fair on the 7th of August, Mindspace and GoodGym.

It was great having Yazid back and always great to see Tazmin!

Last night we did some flyering for local charities and groups, for the Brookvale Village Hall we were distributing their newsletter "The Blurb" and then also flyers from Neighbourcare, MindSpace and GoodGym.

It was a very nice night, with beautiful weather and some great chats with Evelyn and Tazmin managing to distribute to all the Blurbs that we were asked too.
