Tonight was as eventful as ever! After being very late tonight, I then proceeded to stand on a rake & got hit in the face!! The world is trying to tell me something....

Everyone got to work at Bedford Fields with 3 teams; weeders, rakers & soil baggerupers! As always, we got lots done and there was just as much chatting & merriment.

It was a nice surprise to see Helen tonight who's back from her travels.

Great work team!

We celebrated the 7th birthday of GoodGym Leeds by helping to tidy up the garden and outdoor space at Cardigan Community Centre. We split into groups and planted bulbs, weeded, pruned bushes, re-potted plants, and picked litter!

We then finished off the session with a birthday celebration, starring a gorgeous and delicious cake from Jason! Thanks Jason!! 🎉

Welcome to Matthew and Fraser, and welcome back to Kat!

Tonight was the only Wednesday of the year that we didn't do a task, as we celebrated with our summer social instead. We headed to Beckett Park for a game of rounders which everyone enjoyed and Alice led a game of tag...which was absolutely exhausting!! Joao, Alice & Billy were 'on' and did a good job, but eventually we wore them out!

We cancelled our picnic as rain was forecast (even though it didn't materialise), so we headed to the pub & ordered some very questionable pizza. Was it toast or was it pizza...who knew?!

Thanks for a great night all.

Eleven GoodGymers headed to Bedford Fields this evening for weeding and tidying to paths and beds. We also spotted the apples were ripe for eating and the mulberry bush was begging us to find the darkest, sweetest berries. How could we refuse...

Another lovely evening at Meanwood Farm.

Jason, Helen & Erica took their role of caring for cucumbers very seriously, removing mites that were invading them...Helen is so committed, she wants to go & check on them!

Chloe, Rachael, Katie, Shannen & I headed to the Orchard to remove foliage from below the trees with blunt sheers & the rest of the group weeded. There's always lots of weeds at this time of year!

Welcome to Anisah on her first GoodGym task, we hope to see you again soon.

Thanks for another great task all, it's always a pleasure.
