On a beautiful, sunny Saturday morning, two Goodgym runners made a secret garden a little safer for its young visitors. Nettles had taken over the bluebell patch, crept underneath the trampoline and were surrounding the trees... Mat and I donned our gloves and, under the watchful gaze of the family cat, set about clearing the prickly problem. As well as a bin load of nettles, we uncovered a lot of litter, thoughtlessly discarded and thrown over the wall by people passing by. Ms L and her family were very grateful to have a safe place for their young children to play.
