I tried to think of a good pun but I only managed this rubbish one.

A delightful way to kick off a Sunday morning - a brand new task, picking up litter across Clapham Common with a lovely bunch of people.
We met Robert from Lambeth Parks who gave us our gear and suggested the areas that we head to. They'd already picked up 8 tonnes of rubbish from bins around the park from yesterday but he assured us there was still plenty more.
Whilst some of us were doing the nitty gritty jobs of picking up bottle tops and sweet wrappers, others were picking up empty beer cans (and some full ones... ๐) and even a broken gazebo that some people had left...
It's a shame that so many people decide to leave all their rubbish but good that we could help out. Passers-by really appreciated what we were doing - a couple of us said we'd never had such nice feedback at a GoodGym task so that was nice! Hopefully we encouraged some people to join us in the future!
20+ bags of litter and a few drops off rain later, we called it a day.
Great work everyone and nice to see/meet you! ๐ฅ
Keep an eye out for the next one of these coming soon hopefully ๐ค
