Dugnad at the Kingston Environment Centre
3 GoodGymers made their way to help the Kingston Environment Centre in Kingston upon Thames.

What a lovely start to the bank holiday weekend with a community mission in the sun at the Kingston Environment Centre. There was a list of tasks for us to complete and we gave it a good go!
Rosanna worked in the garden sanding and painting a little bench while Claire and Silje tackled the front garden and the huge community flower bed. We weeded and swept the front and tackled trimming the grass and weeding the flowerbed.
We welcomed Silje to GoodGym and learnt that in Norway they call helping out the community ‘dugnad’.
It was great to hear how much the passers by appreciate the garden and thanks to our task owners for the tea and cookies.
