Four Goodgymers, the Mayor of Greenwich (he wanted a day off from his robes and chain of office!) and a couple of other lovely locals tackled a mountain of rubbish along the Woolwich Road. We seem to have a secret cider drinker who has a SERIOUS habit and almost filled a recycling sack with their cast-off cans alone.

The area in front of Selco hadn't been cleared for a while so we managed another three bags of recycling (more cans) and six of general waste. Someone had discarded their chippie dinner and someone else their pants, but now you'd never know!

Thanks everyone! #lovewhereyoulive

One Goodgymer helped several other local volunteers at Westcombe Woods - a wild oasis that is part of a wildlife corridor and not often open to the public. We cleared a nest box that was used earluer in the year and found that an enterprising insect had used the original nest - an empty pupae left behind! Cut back brambles and bind weed near the beehives - but not too near as one of the colonies has apparently been a bit angry recently! It's been a tough year for honeybees.

A lovely place to visit if you're lucky enough to get inside!
