Each Monday morning, GoodGym lends a hand at the South Ealing Community Food Cupboard, helping the volunteers sort and organise surplus food for the local community.

The delivery was running a little late this Monday, but there were plenty of volunteers on hand to make up for lost time. Once the van arrived, they got straight to work and made quick progress unloading and packing everything away.

There was a good selection of fresh fruit alongside a particularly impressive amount of soup. By the time we finished, the shelves were well stocked and the fridge was packed full too!

p.s. thank you Denzel for taking photos and sharing what happened!

After a successful Ealing Half Marathon earlier in the day, six of of our crew came back to the route to take down warning signs, mile markers and directions.

Two of our number had taken part in the race - Steph Ducat and Harvey, amazing that they still had the legs to get round again! Other had stood cheering runners on - Ealing Half really is a community event and so well supported.

We have become experts in snipping plastic ties, a life skills that could come in handy if ever stranded on a desert island! There was a bit of confusion early on as we went round of our section of the route in reverse, but it was dark and taking the long way round isn't so terrible, is it?!

Signs under our arms, we headed to drop them off at Lisa's house - the well known coordination point (Lisa also has a camper van and delivers the signs to their year round storage, a handy person to know).

At the end of a satisfying day, our team headed off into the night to for r and r (not rock n roll; rest and recuperation!).

Thousands of runners wizzed through the streets of Ealing for the annual half marathon. Loads of familiar faces running or cheering. What a great atmosphere and well done to all. We all went bananas at the end 😀 Thanks to the GG supporters on the route.
