There is no stopping AJ over in Denver. Having found We Don't Waste (wedontwaste.org) last week, she already did a second shift and booked in two more!

We Don't Waste - Saving Food • Protecting the Planet • Feeding People

We Don't Waste collects unused food and distributes the food to Denver's most vulnerable.

Slightly out of borough, but when have things like borders/boundaries ever stopped #goodgym crew(s) from doing good deeds? Low tree branches cut back on 5 locations on a Loughton street so pedestrians no longer have to duck or step into the road. @eppingforestdc

@parkrun - out of curiosity.... is there a list of how often people volunteer? Because I happen to know this guy who has done the same role for 200+ times, with such flair & enthusiasm

What a load of hogwash! Traffic was not properly monitored on sacrificed residential roads. No base line, no counting of slow moving traffic & no accepted definition of “nearby roads”. Those predicted “slivers of hell” are now a reality for many poorer people. @SocEnvJustice

Have a look at what we got up to last night joining @WanComGardeners at the #corner house goodgym.org/v3/reports/trick…

Tricky Teamwork tackling thorns though trellis thankfully tethered tolerably - GoodGym Redbridge

3 arrived by bike and one got the train to our starting point. We all took a gentle walk over to the corner house, and waiting for the task owner to show up, she happened to be a bit late. 2 stayed...
