This afternoon, we had a beautiful time swimming & paddleboarding at Pool Bridge Farm near York. It's such a gorgeous spot.

Helen & I got stuck in 2 hours of traffic on route but it was so worth it for the ice cream, the exercise, the picnic & the lovely company. Best of all...no one drooped the oar! A successful trip all in all :)

It was nice to see Hope again & to meet Kieran.

What a great evening we've had with the GoodGym Leeds gang tonight.

Compost moving, weeding & laying membrane were the name of the game up at OWLS allotments. There were also discussions about ants, cricket, musicals, football & Carole.

We then headed to Heart for a drink afterwards & discussed Sarah's interview tomorrow at BBC Radio Leeds where she'll be talking all things GoodGym. We can't wait to listen Sarah!

Yesterday, two GoodGymers headed to Hyde Park for a tidy up, organised by Bedford Fields.

Great work guys & welcome to Joanne on her first session.

Tonight at GoodGym there was hope in the air about the world cup semi-final....

Before the disappointment of the England game though, we had a great session at Meanwood Valley Farm where we weeded four different areas. Andy, the Head Grower always says what an impact we make in such a short time. These summer sessions have such a great vibe & everyone was on top form.

Welcome to Eliza & Hal tonight, we hope to see you again soon.

Next week, we'll grab those summer drinks after the session. The pubs were far too busy for it tonight.

What a lovely evening! In very humid weather, Helen led us up to Bedford Fields with a bit of Japanese style slow jogging...we got in formation & recreated the craze (& felt like proper wally's).

We met the rest of the gang at Bedford & got to work clearing the stones from the path. We then weeded the edges to finish the job.

We spent a lot of time chatting tonight...it was too hot to work. That's our excuse anyway!

Well done to Rachael on her 105th task tonight.

Last night, 3 GoodGymers helped OWLS by delivering their leaflets to their service users around Headingley, Burley & Kirkstall.

Thanks to Helen for mapping the routes & to Alan for joining our session.
