Samia and Pippa arrived at the mission to find a jungle of weeds that needed to be cleared so that Ms E could enjoy her garden again.

Samia took on the path with a spade, while Pippa tackled the flowerbed with a fork. It turned out the tools weren't needed and sheer upper body strength was the best method to pull the weeds from the ground. Some of them were very stubborn and didn't come out without a fight. Samia had a very efficient approach by pulling out a whole big bag's worth in one go! We filled 5 bin bags in total and felt we'd had a good workout by the end! Ms E was very pleased with the result.
