A balmy spring (yay!) evening saw us back at Rose Hill Junior Youth Club, picking up our help with their preparations for new planters, to make the site just that little bit brighter.

Standing on the ground we'd previously cleared of shrubs, Meg ran us all through what was needed - part filling the newly delivered planters with small pieces of wood and topping up with compost from a GIGANTIC compost sack - a great arm and abs workout.

With so many of us, we even managed to form a splinter group to pick up some of the litter both on- site and in the surrounding streets - featuring chat about what makes a good litter picker (good grippy prongs) and multiple fun running and cycling escapades.

Looking forward to seeing the planters in all their glory!

Welcome to the group, Elsa!

A small, but perfectly formed, crew of GoodGymers returned to OXSRAD to paint the treatment room, turning it from a minty hue to something that DEFINITELY wasn't magnolia (but closely resembled it). We've never been more grateful for an indoor task, with sleet and sideways rain outside. We painted away until the paint ran out, leaving a relatively small task for the staff to finish once they have more paint.

Our ratio of paint on walls vs paint on people is definitely improving as time goes on - it's never too late to learn new tricks!
