Leaf it to us to Quay'p things tidy
3 GoodGymers made their way to help the Ballast Quay Community Garden in Greenwich.

On Sunday afternoon three Good Gymers ran to Ballast Quay in Greenwich to help out. We were met by Diane and her dog Tom, a Good Gym favourite.
The site has a big tree which had been shedding its leaves and it was our job to clean these up, especially as the steps around the shed were being made a little treacherous. We set about gathering and one of the nice things about clearing things up at Ballast Quay is that any organic material can be lobbed straight in to the river, although today saw the unexpected challenge of needing to throw the leaves in a way that didn't see them all blown straight back onto you.
45 minutes passed before we knew it, the vast majority of the leaves were floating off to Gravesend and the rain was starting so it was decided that it was time to wander off to the warmth.
