Tower of London community garden - huge planting task

We've been a massive project in the heart of London, right next to the Tower of London. We prepared the site by digging out 5 huge planters ready for trees to be planted.

Michael, from Grounded Ecotherapy who runs the site, said:

'I wanted to start by saying a huge thank you to Goodgym who joined us last Saturday at Tower Hill. It was an absolute pleasure to host them all and, as usual, they didn’t disappoint! They all absolutely smashed stage 1 which involved moving soil and materials onto the terrace and then digging out the 5 large planters.'

Now it is time for the next part. We've got hundred and hundreds of plants to get in the ground.

We'll be meeting at the Bermondsey Bar & Kitchen at 9:50 to run along the river to the Tower of London. This will be a great leg and arm workout. The best way to spend a morning!

This run will be in collaboration with Tom's Run Club, which was founded by flatmates Tom Payne and Shubho Hassan, who aimed to make running more accessible and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of fitness level. They emphasize a relaxed, conversational pace, and no one is ever left behind. This makes it welcoming for complete beginners as well as more experienced runners. They're all about running for enjoyment and community, rather than solely focusing on speed or personal bests. There is big a social aspect with post-run drinks and food, which we will all enjoy together post session!
