Share the love

On a cold sunny Sunday morning, 4 Good Gymers descended on Florence Green in New Cross. The volunteers there needed help developing the space and Good Gym were soon put to work digging trenches ahead of future planting of new hedgerows, and equally importantly clearing away mud and dug-up grass to prevent the remaining grass from dying. Before you knew it the work was done and we were rewarded with tea and biscuits. This is a lovely task that will need help for a while so look out for future sessions.

This is a co-project between two community groups - our aim is to create a sustainable green space for both our community groups to share, improve community relations, increase friendships and less isolation to enhance wellbeing.
