Tonight we are meeting at the Oakridge Hall for All for a flyering session. Make sure you head there not the Social Club as normal

We had an incredible time assisting Natural Basingstoke with this!

I think we have a new contender for weirdest bit of litter that we have found in our time here in Basingstoke with a whole number plate!

We had a great time litter picking last night, it was beautiful weather for it and the vibes were high. Lily & Sam joined for their first session and got straight into the swing of it fitting in really easily.

As always Sammi, Yazid & Tazmin were in great form providing plenty of laughs.

In all we collected 4 full bags of litter around the Queens Mary area, we also found some delicious plums which I enjoyed!

Our Monthly Walk Together Session in conjunction with The Ramblers last night was certainly overshadowed by the eclipse!

However it was a really nice session where we walked through War Memorial Park where Tazmin brought out their trusty colander and some tissue paper for our first attempt at viewing the eclipse.

As we didn't get a clear view of it there both Luke & myself decided to periodically look at the sun to see it with our own eyes, and so far we aren't yet blind.

We continued from there through to the amphitheatre in the Lime Pits where we joined a hundred odd people sitting on the grass enjoying the stunning weather and enjoyed the show.

It was a very nice evening filled with fun chats and good times

We had a great crew at this weeks session, vibes started high with the music going and setting off from the Social Club.

Luke was back for his second session and it was lovely seeing everyone else as well!

We were super productive filling 6 bags of litter from around Kings Furlong up towards Brookvale, unfortunately we didn't find any underwear for national underwear day, but we did find a cache of moldy bread, empty engine oil and a shopping trolley which Yazid naturally got into.

We’ve done a few litter picks over the last few weeks and we find that around central Basingstoke it’s pretty tidy.
If you know a place within 2kms of the Basingstoke Sports & Social Club that’s needs a tidy send it through as we are going to be a litter picking again tomorrow from the Basingstoke Sports & Social Club at 6:15pm.
We volunteer assisting community groups every Wednesday evening doing a range of things, so if there’s something that needs doing let me know.

Always a great time at The Dwelling Place and the garden is coming together beautifully 🥰

We had a great time at the Tidy Town Throwdown yesterday getting to meet so many people and doing some litter picking.
Also managed to organise a future GoodGym session with Natural Basingstoke

We had a lot of fun flyering last Wednesday , it was great to have Nathan back and bringing along Pia for their first session!

We met at the Rucstall Community Centre and flyered through the Black Dam area with flyers for their Tidy Town Throwdown which is happening on the 30th of July, Basingstoke Voluntary Action Fun Fair on the 7th of August, Mindspace Foundation and GoodGym.

It was great having Yazid back and always great to see Tazmin!

Love what Mindspace Foundation do, and very happy to distribute some flyers for them!

A huge shout out to the Basingstoke GoodGym for helping us distribute some of our leaflets around the town. An incredible organisation that highlights just how amazing the community is in the borough.
