Lewisham Report written by Kim
And also not fast car driving involved but there was lot's and lot's of bulb planting involved! It was a short run this week to Florence Green and with half the group meeting us there, it was a small group running up the hill.
On arrival at Florence Green, Subo had kindly put all the bulbs into individual bags and numbered them depending on which tree we should be planting around. It was time to get stuck into the planting. A fairly straight forward task and the only obstacle was the many tree roots.
On the way back it felt like the group had got much smaller, but it hadn't, we definitely didn't lose anyone! I hope the fox hasn't ate too many of the bulbs we planted!
Next week we are heading to The Albany to tackle the litter and also to tackle the weeds in some areas of the garden. Don't forget headtorches!

Southwark Report written by Sam Lefevre (he/him)
Not our usual type of group run as this Wednesday, Teach First needed us for their event. They reached out a few months ago to source more volunteers for their fundraising, Run the River. So, instead of meeting at Old Spike Peckham, we headed to our spot along Southbank and Potter's Field.
Sam had to inform the Teach First volunteer coordinator that we could only help out 18:30 - 20:30, so she offered us spots closeby to the start and the middle of the race. We also had to go straight to our spot instead of the volunteer tent at the start. Our area/section manager had our t-shirt, high vis and dinner pack, which had our lanyard too.
In position, we had Mansur and Gemma were placed at the start whereas Daryl, Lindy, Maria, Paulin, Sam, Sander and Sian were placed between kilometre one and kilometre five (for the 10k) as Route Marshall.
As each wave started at 19:00, 19:15 and finally, 19:30 as there was no 19:45 wave, we cheered and directed the runners ensuring they kept to the route and minded out for the tourists and general walkers walking the Southbank.
After 20:00, it started getting dark and cold really fast, so everyone was wondering where the backmarker was. We waited and waited until Sam was the first person to get relieved of his duties at around 10 past and the rest soon followed suit within the next 30 minutes, but felt like hours... We all handed our high vis to a volunteer that was heading back as it was easier for most of us to head off from where we were.
Thank You to all the GG-ers
A personal thanks from me to all those who came out last night! It was a lovely evening until it got cold, so I hope you all managed to have something nice and warm when you got back home. This was a one-off, so I appreciate you signing up and volunteering. Next week, we're back to normal!

Lambeth Report written by Sander Heinsalu
We helped put up the gazebos and foldable chairs and tables. Many hands make light work, so we finished about 15 minutes after the official start time.
