Ho Ho Ho 2 Christmas days to go
Joining many last minute shoppers, goodgymers and Age UK volunteers were fighting their way to shop for those in need in southwark.
With the new tier 4 restrictions, everyone seemed to be stocking up for this special stay-at-home Christmas. Many shelves were found empty! We all had to act quick before the items ran out!
Strawberries? Oh so sorry, please be early next Christmas!
Regardless, we finished all the shopping before 11am.
Ho! Ho! Ho!

Food2You Tesco shop, Wednesday edition
Are you available to help our friends at Food2You on a Wednesday morning in Surrey Quays? This is a fun task that will make a big difference!
What's involved?
- Meet Food2You team at Tesco in Surrey Quays between 9-11am (there are some doors at the far end of the Tesco store, near the sugar section)
- Pick up a shopping list and head into the store to find the items
- Bring these back to the team, where together, you will double check the items before they are boxed to go through the till
Food2You is a shopping delivery service provided for older people through Age UK. We are excited to be able to get involved, with this task now a weekly activity on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings.
You will, of course, need to adhere to social distancing rules, wear a mask and gloves and take direction from the Food2You team.

Clearing bramble at Lower Road Community Garden
Please note that this community mission has been cancelled.
We began this project in early December, and we're continuing with regular Saturday sessions to help clear away the bramble!
The Garden is a new community group set up this year with the main purpose of creating a community garden in this abandon strip of land. They have obtained permission to go ahead, but to get started we need to clear the space first. Right now 'The Garden' is unaccessible.
Tools will be provided, but feel free to bring yours also.
Please remember to bring your own gloves to the task.

All I want for Christmas is my two front trees (to be chopped down!)
We returned to The Garden to continue with clearing the brambles and self-seeded trees. We made good progress but there is more to do - we will be back next week! 💪

Ski ya later 🎿
Five GoodGymers spent their Saturday morning sprucing up Galleywall Nature Reserve!
Jane and her team had plenty of tasks for us to do:
- Mulching and building a barrier/border around their raised beds
- Sorting out the tools
- Breaking up twigs and woodsticks from a makeshift firepit the children set up
- Raking the leaves
- Litter picking
- Using the crowbar to take out the nails from makeshift wooden skis!
- Sorting out the shed - taking things out, organising and putting things back in order.
- Trimming the trees with secateurs
Everyone got stuck in with their own individual or team task and 2 hours flew by!
Jane and her Nature Reserve team will want us back in 2021 and I'm sure we will be there! 😊
