What a brilliant evening at Friends of the Earth! It was great to welcome Daniel to Goodgym, having cycled to his first session and returner Ali too, with his friend Ahmed.

Eve had a very warm run across the city centre and got stuck straight in with window cleaning and taking some rubbish to the local big bins. We all did a mix of tasks around the outdoor area, with Ali watering plants and trimming the ivy, Daniel clearing the bike hanger of leaves and debris, whilst myself and Ahmed spruced up the window sills and squeaked the windows clean with staff member Karen.

It was such a fabulous team effort and great to see the impact we made together for this incredible charity. We’re usually at Friends of the Earth every few months and you can stay tuned to hear about all our upcoming activities on the Sessions page! 😊👍

Three of us met at Carrs Lane Church on this sunny evening in the city centre! After some litter pickers went walkabout, we thought fast and got hold of some dustpans and brushes to get the job done. It was great to welcome Ali to his first task with Goodgym and thanks to James for coming along to help too. They were both speedy picking litter across the different grassy sections while I was on bin bag duty as they emptied in many dustpans of rubbish. We had a full bag of litter before too long and the grass by Carrs Lane Church was lovely and clear.
