Report written by Rachel Levick

It felt like we were in an episode of Garden SOS or Groundforce (or one of those similar garden makeover shows) last night as GoodGym Nottingham teamed up with the 1st Porchester Scout group to work at their scout hut.

Alongside parents and children from the group, GoodGymers Chris, Khiltee, ~Nat~, Rachel and first-timer Mike joined in with digging, chopping and pulling up a whole bunch of weeds and rubble from the outdoor area surrounding the building. The plan is to clear the area so that it can be evened out and made more welcoming and usable again, including installing some steps for better access.

This was a really enjoyable evening and we hope to return to help out some more in the coming weeks.

Welcome to Mike who joined us for his first GoodGym task, and to ~Nat~ for doing the double with the previous night’s task too – it’s not a competition but this task was probably her favourite as she got to use a leaf blower!

Next week we will be back at Sherwood Community Centre – sign up here.
