Try Branching Out!
6 GoodGymers made their way to help the Richmond Furniture Scheme in Richmond.

Our monthly Richmond Furniture Scheme visit saw six of us bravely venture further into the undergrowth.
After we had removed the sand bags which had been blocking RFS’s side passage the previous month, we got to grips with clearing the ivy, brambles and other debris, that included the odd squeaky dog toy.
Additionally there was rubbish from the RFS’s last social that had to be cleared up following a visit from a local fox in the night.
It was a rather hot and humid morning, but spurred on by the thought of carrot cake at the end, we galvanised ourselves into action, using tools such as saws and loppers.
After an hour of sawing and hacking, we finally removed the seemingly never -ending branches and moved them into a compost pile.
Although, we made a large dent in the work outstanding there, clearly another visit is required and next month we will be back with the aim of finishing the job!
