Running with the flow
6 GoodGymers made their way to help the Luton Borough Council Parks and Countryside in Luton.

This week we took on a couple of riverside tasks, first clearing up a ton of litter revealed during some scrub clearance work at a quiet riverside spot. While there we also spread out woodchip on the paths to make a nice mud-free riverside path. then we jogged on to another spot further down where a natural den by the river was attracting anti social behaviour, we took out some saplings and shrubs to open up this area and make it less secluded for dodgy activities. With the playground nearby this makes it a nicer place for kids to play and they can get in more easily to explore the river now.
We were joined in all this by Sam from the council who looks after all the volunteers in Luton's green spaces. He's been a fan of GoodGym for ages and regularly sets tasks for us but finally managed to join us for his first run as joint member and task owner!
