Tonight's task was a return to the lovely St Alban Church on Grove Walk.

On our last visit there we created a new flower bed. This time, we wanted to protect the plants from weeds so our job was to lay a protective mesh down and cover it with wood chippings. Once we completed that we did a bit of weeding.

A big welcome to James and Ralph for taking part in their first Group Run session.

There was talk that we hadn't done a fitness session in a while so I included a squat workout, a relay during weeding and then a wall sit to finish up with. I'm not going lie, it was satisfying putting you all through your paces.

Well done to everyone, you worked hard and Catherine and Sarah were very appreciative of your help.

Sanctuary garden lavender planting
Weeding a flower bed and planting 20 lavcendar plants

At the Sanctuary we have a community cafe which is open midweek and occasionally at weekends for events. The garden is well used by local people and it needs a bit of TLC. I have bought some lavender to spruce up the flower bed, and it is also in need of some weeding.
