Tonight 9 GoodGymer's returned to Frere Road Community Centre to continue giving the exterior walls a fresh coat of paint.

Focusing on the front of the building we were given a new colour 'Cornish Cream' to brighten things up! Which led to the discussion - what do you spread on your scone first, cream or jam??

The dust sheets were laid out, and everyone spread out armed with rollers, brushes & step ladders for the hardest to reach areas. Woody also finished off the remaining white wall that we couldn't complete on our last visit.

Once we were finished it was time for a quick social and some birthday celebrations at the pub!

Thanks again to Claire for organising and cleaning all the tools for the task.

Only 3 runners for us today but volunteers were still happy to stand out in the drizzle to encourage the juniors round. we were missing GG Stephen Reed volunteering today as he was running #RN27 hope all went well. Over at Eaton Juniors 98 young people attended with Liz volunteering.

331 participants, sunny, cooler weather what a morning we had. Good luck to all those who are Running #RN26.

This was a challenge! The sofa had to go through some narrow doorways and it was a fun although heavy puzzle to get the sofa out of the door.

Eventually we succeed and it’s ready to be collected, with a happy Mrs Y.

Tonight 5 GoodGymer's returned to Marlpit Community Garden, to support this volunteer run venue.

We began filling wheelbarrows with woodchip, transporting it to the back of the orchard to use as mulch for the fruit trees. Then on the way back we helped clear a pile of chopped wood, rubble and cardboard, carrying it to the central bonfire area. While this took up most of the evening, Liz & Jack were also able to give the herb garden a much needed trim.

The hour flew by and with the sun still shining we ran, cycled & walked back to the city. Well done team!

18 young people including some first timers & 13 volunteers attending on a muggy morning after rain overnight which helped to soften the ground.
