Pruning of a shrub and a creeping ivy for Miss S (wk2)
For years, this lady took great pride in caring for her garden, but at 70 she is no longer able to manage it alone due to a recent arm injury and knee problems.. Living with anxiety and depression, she feels increasingly distressed and overwhelmed watching the garden she once loved fall into disrepair. What may be a few hours of gardening for volunteers could have a huge impact on her wellbeing, restoring not just her outdoor space, but her sense of pride and peace of mind. If you can spare some time, please help make a real difference to her life.

Reading mail for Mr J (wk1)
Mr J is disabled and lives with his elderly mother. Following the death of his father, and his mother's loss of sight, he is now responsible for managing the household bills. He is dyslexic and has no support with this which is causing him to become increasingly anxious about missing important bills or parking tickets. The support of one of your lovely volunteers would reduce his stress and ensure important correspondence is managed in time.

Before GoodGym I always lost motivation to stick at running or the gym but now I run two or three times a week.
Running with GoodGym is great because I get fit, do good and get to hang with a load of awesome people.
