It's been Ages since GoodGym Newcastle helped out at Age UK Gateshead. Last time we were painting inside and it was lovely to see the main space looking beautiful with lots of happy looking service users there. Today though we were outdoors, weeding.

A big welcome to Emma who joined in to earn her first GoodGym credit. Double kudos to Emma for coming along straight from a job interview - we hope you get the job Emma and that your lovely smart interview outfit didn't get too muddy!

It was a simple task from task owner Ryan - clear the weeds away to allow for future planting. There is a big area at the front and an even bigger area at the back. The three of us worked solidly for two hours and hopefully you can see the difference we made. However, Ryan has big plans for the gardens so it's going to take an Age and I reckon weed have to go back again!

Check out Monday's group run if you'd like to get in on the act!
