More than just the litter

Welcome and well done to Jason for his first good deed with GoodGym, and to Matt and Vikie, who were returning for their second community missions and ALSO squeezed in a GoodGym fitness session with Amy earlier in the evening. It was also great to meet Louisa, who has an awesome 31 good deeds under her belt, having joined GoodGym in Ealing in 2018 - before most of the rest of us had ever heard of GoodGym! Thanks to Matt, who has written the following to capture the spirit of the evening:

With the nights getting shorter and with new found freedom as restrictions ease, a team of pickers descended on a parade of shops and surrounding roads in search of litter. What turned out to be a large amount of cigarette butts and other rubbish it quickly became more than just the litter.

As the first outings for some and the beginning of many more missions on the horizon it gave a great opportunity to connect with new members, learn about each other and even engage with local residents who were very thankful for our efforts. Perhaps even laying the path for them to become members in the future.

Great work team!
