The lovely people at the Cherry Tree Nursery needed us to help spread the word about a fundraising event they are having in September.

We were due to do a flyer drop for them the week the pandemic hit back in March, so it felt great to be able to get this done under much more positive circumstances!

We welcomed Nathalie to her first GoodGym Bournemouth experience and it’s like she always been one of us!!

We set off on a semi plod to the start of where we were going to start our synchronised frog hopping...split up into two groups, one on one side of the road and the other on the other side and off we went!

Hannah was showing a bit more of her baby bump which was lovely to see!

Grace was back and we’re going to our best to attach ourselves to her leg so it’ll be really hard for her to leave us again....we’ll have to set up a rota for this.

Caprice took it on to be the photographer and did a great job and in about 25mins we had managed to deliver all the flyers!!

So not being content with doing one good thing we did a litter pick of Kings Park.

Dirty undies and human faeces looked to be top of the gross list and on top of the whaaaaaaaaat? list was a massive knife....I hope it was used to cut mint for mojitos?

Great photo showing Laura and Daryl’s faces upon the find.

Next week Daryl has set up a litter pick on the Wednesday evening so check it out.

And we’re sorting out another visit to the Dorset Children’s Foundation storage unit to do some sorting on a Saturday morning too, so keep an eye on the website!!

So nice to see everyone again. We can’t leave it so long this time.

Take care everyone!
