Brite Box is moving offices and needed hands to move items from their unit to the Save the World van. Emily and Rachel helped carry things down the stairs with the other volunteers from Voices of Hope and the job was done within half an hour. Well done team!

Tonight was all about watering as the heatwave continues to keep everyone and the plants hot and thirsty.
Having located the handle for the water carriers and extra buckets Dave, Luke, Claire and Jonathan headed to the river to fill every bucket, wheelbarrow and watering can in sight.
Wheelbarrows loaded with water were wheeled over to the GoodGym flowerbed for watering all the plants to keep it looking colourful and keep them going for a few more days.
Meanwhile the water carriers were taken to the community garden and emptied into the waterbutts. As fast as they were filled they were emptied for watering all the vegetables.
By the end it was a slick operation emptying the water carriers into buckets and into the waterbutts.
In between all of this Tom and Laura managed to give the compost heaps a good turn as well.
Let hope we get some rain before our next visit.

This morning, bright eyed Farzeen and myself arrived to water the goodgym flower bed to help the plants in the battle against the heat. They are helping each other by grouping together as a team, as long as no arghy bargy comes between them they will be there to fight another day 😀

7 goodgymers from different areas picked and dropped a few items for the foodbank. Helping each other, whether they are people known to us or not keeps the world going in the right direction.

Today was just a tidy up to help plants keep going in this heat and show themselves in all their glory. Also the square looking its best.
