It's been a while since we helped out at Sneinton Primary School's allotment, so it was lovely to be back on a sunny Autumn morning for our first task of November. Kathryn met us on arrival and set us to work on various tasks, including litter picking the path, clearing the raised beds and ground of leaves, trimming the lavender (which smelt beautiful!), and cutting back some of the brambles at the back of the allotment.

We were joined by three mini GoodGymers who were a great help until the lure of colouring in took over and a craft station was set up at one of the tables. We also met Waliyah who joined for her first GoodGym task - it was lovely to meet you!

Lucy, Robert and Rachel joined hundreds of other early risers at the Run 5.30 event in Nottingham. It was a bit of case of 'where's wally' trying to find each other in the crowd as everyone had to wear the same pink t-shirt, but we all completed the 5k route in good time and were treated to a high five from Nottingham legend and paralympian, Richard Whitehead, at the finish line (see photo of Lucy!).
