5 Goodgym folks from the Islington borough (including new starter Kim- welcome!) joined Area Activator Simon for a Friday evening workout at Grenville Gardens.

Following the sad passing of Sarah Roth, our most frequent collaborator for gardening tasks with Friends of Grenville Gardens (FROGG) over many years (a lovely smiley and welcoming coordinator!), we agreed to help with filling up a series of newly built planters.

We met with Julian and Poppy, a couple of the neighbourhood volunteers by three 1 tonne bags of freshly delivered soil! Multiple buckets and a sturdy wheel barrow were on offer to us, and we make quick work of tipping, wheeling, shoveling and sweeping.

The next stage will involve preparing the soil for local gardeners to utilise these beautiful beds! Well done everyone!
