Three GoodGymers thought that Southall Rec green space would be a guarantee for an abundance of litter to collect - at least that's what experience taught them. They were wrong!
They started their litterpicking journey at the Tiny Forest, where they collected a few plastic bags, and then they moved to the paths and outer edges of the park. The bins had been recently emptied, and the space didn't look bad at all, which was a good sign. Steph, Sevan, and Kash still found drink cans, bottles, bottle caps, plastic cups, tissues, and chocolate wrappers. They also encountered cricket balls in different stages of decay - one was saved from oblivion and left near the cricket pitch for the players to collect during their next game.
In 40 minutes, the GoodGymers hardly filled one rubbish bag between the three of them, and decided to call it a day - then ran to their following missions.
