We welcomed Ellie, who came for her first good deed and saw the brilliant work GROAD does as she helped set up the Open House with Maria, Nathan, Sam and three GROAD volunteers.
They setup the main hall with tables of clothes, household items, toys and books.
They also took in donations from variety of people, but after two hours they had to stop. Most of the items had been put out.
Well done all and another warm welcome, Ellie!

Maria, Nathan and Sam came over to Edward Alleynian to put the donated clothes on the rail, sort out other donated items and take in any donations from the public.
The manager of Edward Alleynian came at the end to say all the items needed to be stored in the Kitchen rather than the Changing Rooms as they would start using these for their football and rugby teams.

It was our monthly session at Old Alleynian Rugby Club with Ian and the Green team.
Maria and Sam met up Elliot at the old shed and he told us he just signed up for GoodGym last night and thought he would come down for his first session today! Hooray and welcome, Elliot!
Ed, Gemma and Daryl came shortly after as the first task at hand was to move wooden pallets away from where the cricket equipment would be wintered to closer to the old shed. Some pallets could be saved whereas others couldn't - we put them in a skip. It was the same for the wooden flooring that we had to pull up.
However, a few of us like Gemma, Maria and Sam got started on clearing back the overgrowth before being joined by Daryl and Ed. We used all sorts of tools from shears to rakes to clear back the ivy and brambles.
After an hour and a half of hard work, we called it a day and Ian kindly gave us a sweet treat to take home before we all departed our ways.
A warm welcome again to Elliot and we hope to see you again!

Firstly, a warm welcome to Nirmay who came for his second good deed after helping out at Borough Food Cooperative (BFC) and good luck starting your new role on Monday!
Daryl, Joao, John, Nathan, Sam and Tracey all met up Nirmay and Simon from Thorlands at the Walled Garden to collect the tools and talk about what needed to be done today.
Joao and Nathan started the session by doing rounds back to the mulch depo centre to collect the woodchip for the bed.
Tracey, John, Daryl and Nirmay concentrated on clearing the growth around the terrace. Once this finish the team progressed towards the platform to clear the green around this area. Sam did some litter picking whilst preparing a few nutrient packed green leaves for the compost pile in the Walled Garden, which Nathan brought over at the end of the session.
Halfway through the session, Daryl switched with Joao to get the mulch whilst Joao was a machine as he helped clear the platform area. All this on his 100th good deed, which he kept quiet. Well done, Joao! It's a massive milestone 🎉🥳
