Windsor and Maidenhead Report written by Jess Smith
The team assembled on site, with a small group having walked together and everyone else making their own way.
We were met by Jon who showed us the stacks of bulbs for planting and instructed us to fill the areas with as many bulbs as possible and then with any left put them in the flowerbeds in the playground.
Everyone armed themselves with tools and bulbs and got to work making a whole lot of holes and bedding the bulbs in!
Although all our work was hidden below ground we hope we will be able to see the fruits of our labour in the spring!

Hi Jess, sorry to reach out here not sure how to respond to your email as the email id i get your emails from says no-reply. Anyways thanks for getting in touch. I was outside the community centre today at 6:45 and mentioned in the meetup group that I was there, but I didn’t hear back, so I left after waiting for about 10 minutes. I did manage to get inside the community centre, but they told me the group had already left. Where do you normally meet up?

Windsor and Maidenhead Report written by Windsor and Maidenhead runner
Last night, Sophie and Anne Laure met at the community centre and set off for the 1.2km run to the task location whilst Jess and Jen were already en route walking. The other Goodgymmers all met at the task location of All Saints Church who mostly ran, walked or cycled to get there and we were greeted by Jo who was one of the Church volunteers and directed us on what we needed to do.
Our job was to remove ivy and bindweed from the fencings along the A4. There was a LOT and we spent an hour making it look a lot better and removing multiple bags worth into the church grounds which will be disposed of at the tip in the coming weeks. We also swept and raked to make the pavement look at clean as possible. Thank you Jess for remembering to take before and after photos!
It was a great evening with good company, thankfully only a bit of light drizzle and passers by thanked us for our efforts. Well done everyone!
