Lewisham Report written by Dan
A group of a dozen or so comprised of local volunteers, children and a couple of good-gymers ferrying water up and down a parched hedgrow with buckets and watering cans.
We only had enough water in the container for half the thirsty sapling which had been struggling in the dry weather, but managed to water them all with the use of a piece of string, a metal bucket and the Ravensbourne.
300 shrubs later and with tired arms the hedge will have a chance to get through another few days of hot weather, and I suspect we will be back soon.
Lovely day for it. Good fun. Apologies I’m great at remembering to take photos!

The best way to round off a bank holiday is to do some good in the sunshine. It might've been a bit windy but after a day of all weathers, it was great to see a bit of sunshine! Welcome to Holly joining us for her first group run, hope you had a great time!
It was a short run this evening to Luxmore Garden and it was our first visit of the year so guess what...lot's of alkinet to remove. There was also bindweed and nettles and some litter to clear.
The final task of the evening was to pile all the weeds onto the compost pile.
Marta should definitely now hold some sort of record for the longest in tact alkinet root ever pulled up at a GG group run!!
