7 Goodgymmers grabbed their overdue books and ran to help the Stroud Green and Harringay Library.

Kudos Corner

Latoya is now a 300 Good Deeds Club Membership card holder and we couldn't be any prouder. They grow up so fast!

And it was perhaps quite fitting that as we were high fiving Latoya's feat, we were also celebrating Carolina's first Good Deed. And boy, she was a natural, and took all the lunacy around her in good spirits. Welcome!

The Talk of the Town

GGHaringey Goodgymmers usually spend most of their Mondays wrapped in egg shells and immersed in ice baths, re-energising for our usual Wednesday hangouts.

However, when the good folk at the Stroud Green and Harringay Library come a-calling, who are we to say no! Tonight we were meant to be helping them relocate some boxes into the library but a clash with a talk at the library means we ended up helping sort out the grounds outside instead.

With their usual sisyphean fortitude, our intrepid Goodgymmers rolled a heavy bin up a hill, filled it up with garden detritus, only to help roll it back down the hill again.

We did some brushing, some leaves collecting, some japing. And then a very suspicious Gramps tried to convince a few Goodgymmers to get into the back of a stranger's van. You had to be there for that one, I think.

Selfies here, air-kisses there - we all went our merry way into the night.

Join us on Wednesday for more adrenaline-fuelled capers!
