We had an excellent session yesterday with Natural Basingstoke! We were met by Alan from the NB team who took the team to a former allotment near the train station which Natural Basingstoke is trying to rewild.

This involved dead-heading the flowers from the Golden Rod plants which aren't native and try to take over areas. The team managed to do 2/3rds of this before heading over to the Holy Ghost Cemetary to collect pine cones for Childrens Crafts days.

It was great having Mohamed down to their first session with GoodGym. The session was excellently lead by Tazmin & Luke did a lot of work while also taking the photos.

I think we have a new contender for weirdest bit of litter that we have found in our time here in Basingstoke with a whole number plate!

We had a great time litter picking last night, it was beautiful weather for it and the vibes were high. Lily & Sam joined for their first session and got straight into the swing of it fitting in really easily.

As always Sammi, Yazid & Tazmin were in great form providing plenty of laughs.

In all we collected 4 full bags of litter around the Queens Mary area, we also found some delicious plums which I enjoyed!
