As the clock struck 12pm, three more GoodGymers joined the morning crew, making six volunteers in total. After helping run a successful foodbank session that was greatly appreciated by local residents, the team kept up the momentum by sorting donated clothes, toys and household items ready for the Reusable Hub session at 3pm. No slowing down for these GoodGymers, proving that community support is always in good running order!

No loafing around for GoodGymers Susan and Brenda, who are busy prepping today's foodbank so local residents can bag the support they need.

I headed out on a solo mission to help a lovely older lady get her front and back gardens back into shape. I trimmed the rose bushes, pulled weeds and tackled a serious case of bramble overgrowth—let’s just say I had my work cut out for me. It was a prickly job, but someone had to rose to the occasion! By the end, the gardens were looking blooming marvellous, and I’d hopefully helped make her little corner of the world a bit brighter.

Papa’s was the meeting point once again, and this evening’s crew assembled ready to put their best foot (and leaflet) forward: Ben , Fi, Libby , and yours truly, Yianny 💪🏼
Tonight’s mission? Pure, vital, community-shaking work: spreading the good word about GoodGym itself! 📣 Because if you’re going to run around doing good deeds, you might as well recruit a few more people to join in the chaos. Leaflets in hand, we canvassed the local area with the focus of a squad who takes “door to door” very literally — and we didn’t stop until every last flyer had found a new home. Mission: accomplished. Letterboxes: thoroughly GoodGym’d. 📬
Being a nice quick task, we even had time left over for the true reward of volunteering: an impromptu post-task tipple 🥂 Nothing says “we just promoted community fitness” quite like immediately sitting down for a well-earned drink. Balance, people. It’s all about balance.
Great work team — here’s to more leaflets, more laps, and more lovely little detours to the pub along the way 🍻❤️

Two GoodGymers joined the VGCC core team to prep for the food bank session, doing their best to stay cool in the amber‑alert heat. The fans were giving it their all, we kept water close, and everyone pushed through a seriously sweaty afternoon. Even the fruit looked like it was melting.
