Local Goodgymers John and Jackie helped Alara Wholefood's Harvest Festival.

Goodgym Camden has done many good deeds at Alara in the past and twice a year the social enterprise puts on a free festival for the community. John and Jackie's task, on behalf of Goodgym, was to keep the bonfire going and prevent the many children attending the festival from getting too close to the flames. We also chatted to the kids, who helped us throw combustible materials onto the fire. We also took the opportunity to spread the word about Goodgym. We were pleased to meet two "off duty" Goodgymers, from Camden and Haringey, who were attending the festival.

At the end of the evening, we helped clear up a mountain of empty drink bottles, plates and general rubbish left by the large number of people in attendance.
