It may be the last day of October, but someone forgot to tell the weather, as it was still feeling more like late summer than spooky season! ☀️

Eight of us, plus Arthur, joined forces with our friends at Mycenae Gardens for our monthly volunteer session. We soaked up the sunshine, enjoyed a good natter and got stuck into some gardening. It was a fang-tastic way to spend the morning. 🧙‍♀️🌿

Some of the team got their hands dirty weeding, clearing grass and tackling the alkanet to get the space ready for planting lots of lovely new plants next month. Others got busy lopping down overgrown trees, bushes and dead plants and dragging them over to the dead hedge that we've been adding to over time.

A special welcome to Leonor, who joined us for her very first GoodGym task. She certainly didn't let the grass grow under her feet, tackling her lopping task with gusto! ✂️

A great morning, topped off with some hauntingly yummy cake from Virginia and a coffee in the cafe.

Lovely to see you all - until next time 😊
