Three years ago we had a community mission to construct a donated metal shed at The Up Garden.

Over the years the shed has required some repairs and developed a leaking roof but after a fund raising campaign they have enough money for a new shed so how could we turn down the request to demolish the shed.

Catherine met is at the Garden and asked is to move the last few items in the shed and to remove the guttering as it will be reused.

Hammers in hand we set to working on demolishing the shed,an ideal task after a stressful day at work for Kevin and for Chris to celebrate his 50th GoodGym task

Once the shed was down and taken apart we piled the pieces ready for collection by the local council.

A wonderful morning walk learning about indigenous and non trees in the local area alongside a litter pick.

Fun times with fun folks :O)

We welcomed Ibrahim to his first visit to GG Newham.

Graham led the group from the Aquatics Centre (yes back at our original base)

Kevin and I headed there from home with a gentle run through West Ham Park.

Elaine and Sybil greeted us and showed us to the allotment plot that needed a very large old shed dismantling ready for collection. It is hoped that the plot will then be let out to a new resident.

We started with clearing some debris from inside the shed before it was attacked with a sledgehammer,with a final group push the shed was flattened.

Elaine and Sybil had laid on some wonderful refreshments.

We said our good byes and headed into the sunset.

We will see Sybil next week at Emmaunel Church.....so will be more post task refreshments sign up here

A return to an evening task st Emmanuel Church.

This week Sybil had asked if it would be possible for us to give the church a spring clean ready for their Easter services.

A received a very warm welcome from Sybil who then led us into the church.

Brooms,feather dusters and clothes at the ready we split into groups and proceeded to dust and remove as many cobwebs as possible.

Kevin was in charge of ladder holding while Adam gave the ceiling a brush.

Graham and Brad with the help from one of the church wardens fashioned an extra long brush to reach the cobwebs above the arches.

A quick refuel thanks to the wonderful lady wardens who had made us cheese on toast in addition to tea and coffee and fruit,we also finished off my birthday cake. Refueled we made a final push to get the final webs before we said our goodbyes not before Sybil made sure we had some fruit for when we got home.
