GoodGym had a great day at the Big Sports Day in Wimbledon Park celebrating sport in the borough. We met with Roxanne Bennett, the Sports and Leisure Manager, from Merton Council, Councillor Caroline Cooper Marbiah, and the Mayor of Merton, Councillor Slawek Szczepanski, and told them all about how great GoodGym is and how we can support local charities and community groups in the borough once GoodGym Merton is launched. We just need three more taskforce to launch so if you want to be part of the process then let us know!
We spent an hour walking round the event handing out leaflets and explaining what we do. Jade got into networking mode and chatted with all the community groups and created valuable connections face-to-face to let them know how GoodGym Merton could support them.
So lovely to meet Caroline and with Jade and bond as the founding group of Goodgym Merton. Very excited for the launch! Watch this space.
