The day went quick, all deliveries came in time, ready for our Customers in friday

Big shovel energy tonight at Holy Trinity, team! 💪🏼 One of our fave return fixtures — barrows loaded, wood mulch flying, and the orchard garden finally got the thirsty tree bases and borders the mulch they’d been begging for. Parched no more! 🌳💦

Squad on task: Adam, Ben, Fi, Katie, Michael, Rich and yours truly, Yianny. Absolute mulch-ines, the lot of them. 🍾

And because it was the end of the month, social snuck back into its rightful evening slot — chef’s kiss timing. 😊 Ben went full Bake Off with homemade feta parcels and veggie sausage rolls (someone give this man a task-and-tasting badge 🧰❤️), everyone else brought food and drink to match, and our host with the most, Tilly, ran a properly spirited round of Linkee that had brains and bellies both working overtime. 🤩

Thanks to Nicole and Adam for hosting us!

Mulch spread, minds boggled, tummies full — you really can’t beat a GoodGym Tuesday.

Three regular GoodGymers once again put their best foot forward at VGCC's Friday foodbank session. From 12pm to 2pm we were running on kindness, helping local residents pick up fresh, healthy produce and a few smiles along the way.

The team hit the ground running, kept things moving at a good pace, and then went the extra mile by staying behind for the pack-down and clear-up. There was plenty of squash court action with the veg, some serious bean-there-done-that experience, and enough community spirit to keep us all well fuelled.

Another run-derful afternoon proving that when GoodGymers step up, everyone wins.

Finish line verdict: No medals, no PBs, just plenty of food for thought and miles of smiles. 💚🏃‍♀️🥕🏃‍♂️🍎

The Community Healing Garden are holding their big summer party next weekend, so needed all hands on deck for party-prep. Luckily, Goodgym-ers descended from all across London to boster numbers - Julian, Marta and Khai from Greenwich; Tracey from Wandsworth; and Manuel all the way from Elephant and Castle!

Head Gardener Hugh started with a tour of the garden and it was great to see the planters thriving despite the endless dry spell - the residents have done a great job with the watering efforts!

The main task of the day was to shift piles of poles, planks and pallets from the central party zone, to the far corners of the garden. Many hands make light work, and by setting up a production line we efficiently lifted and shifted everything in sight. Our efforts were rewarded with a well earned cup of tea and a cookie - but the real celebration will be next week's party - Sunday 6th Sept 12-4pm, all welcome!

The day went well. There was enough for the clients, even with over 100 each, going home with full bags.

We had a whopping 3 volunteers in attendance, who made short work of the delivery and chopped up fruit and veg to pack away, all ready for the next day's foodbank.
