We headed out on what might have been the last evening of the Indian summer to Holy Trinity, one of our longer runs as darkness fell. 🌅🏃‍♀️

Our crew of Yianny, Ben, Michael, Katie, Jo, Fi, Adam, George and Nicole were thyme-ly arrivals (herb puns, anyone? 🌿). On arrival we met the walking and hill running crew (nice one, Fi 👏⛰️) and got cracking, helping Nicole, Adam and Naome with lopping, chopping and edging the paving areas. We really branched out with this one! 🪓

We had our head torches out for the first time in yonks 🔦, and the effect of filling 10 green bags will become clear in the morning! 🥳 Hopefully nobody leafs without noticing the difference. 🍃

Join us in a couple of weeks for some flyering for the People's Emergency Briefing at Holy Trinity in Nov! 😱📣

A lovely evening for it, fun friends to share with and another great task well done! 🧰❤️ You could say we really nailed the hedge-ucation. 😎

We were due to help our friends at GROAD get their new venue ready at GreenWorks 🛠️. But Andrea got held up at their storage facility, so all we could manage was a spot of weeding outside. 🌿😅

But as GGers, when life gives you lemons 🍋... we head to the pub(for grown up lemonade)! The group finished early and made it to the social double quick, where Ben (despite his jet lag ✈️😴) had organised a quiz for us. It was a quizzical turn of events, but a wonderfully fun one!

GG Lambeth showed its competitive side (well, some of us did 👀), and our two teams took 1st 🥇 and 3rd 🥉 on the podium!! 🥳 Clearly we're as sharp with our brains as we are with our trowels 🧠

Join us next month at the social, when we'll be spending our winnings 💰 and making full use of the karaoke facilities 😱🎤🎙️ You have been warned!

A lovely evening, fun friends to share it with and another great task well done(ish)! 🧰❤️

Who was there: RJ 🌟, Amona 🌟, Yianny, Katie, Lucy, Tilly, Jo, Fi, Adam and Rich 💪🏼

🌟 = welcome to your first GoodGym session RJ & Amona we were delighted to have you with us, you rooted for us and it bloomed into a great night! 🌸🥰

Another cracking Lambeth GoodGym outing in the books! 🎉

We rolled back up to help Tom and the Lambeth Parks crew tackle the edging and clearing at St Matthew's Peace Garden 🪏 — and honestly, if you haven't seen this place, get down there, it's an absolute stunner.

Yianny, Michael, Jo, Adam and Nicole got stuck in and we filled that two-tonne bag right to the brim(ish)... and STILL had work spare. So, in the immortal words of a certain Austrian action hero: "We'll be back." 🦾

Huge congrats to Nicole for smashing her 10th good deed! 🔟🎊 Double digits and still going strong — the good deeds just keep on coming.

Massive welcome back to Tilly, freshly returned from her wedding! 🥰💍 We even had the pleasure of meeting the new hubby, and she rocked up with home-baked treats to celebrate — and officially kick off the Lambeth Bake Off sweepstakes 🍰🏆 (early odds are already fierce).

A gorgeous evening, great company, and another job well done. Another one bites the... weed. 🧰❤️

Three legends rocked up for a proper garden glow-up at Wyck Gardens tonight — Yianny, Fi and Rich in the house! 🏃‍♂️💪🏼

The squad swung by LJ Works first to grab the water and hay barrows (essential kit for a hay-mazing evening 🌾), then set to work giving the young trees a well-deserved drink and tucking them in with a fresh blanket of compost and hay. Talk about tree-mendous care! 🌱🧰

Next up: log-istics. 🪵 The crew wheeled some seriously major logs back to LJ Works, laying the groundwork (quite literally) for the pond build that's coming soon — some lucky frogs are going to be very pleased 🐸🎉

A gorgeous evening, great company, and another job well toad! Big love to Fi and Rich for getting stuck in 🍾❤️

Same time next week? Water we thinking! 💦😄

Another cracking Tuesday for the GoodGym Lambeth crew! We rocked up at Papa's, laced up, and jogged over to Ruskin Park to link up with Tom from Lambeth Parks — a man whose garden kit game is honestly unmatched. Best gear in Lambeth, no notes. 🏆

Today's mission: bramble bashing. And bash we did. 💪🏼

Armed with rakes, secateurs and loppers (basically a horticultural Avengers lineup), we descended on the bramble bushes with genuine menace. The technique was simple but effective: rake 'em out, chop 'em down, pile 'em up for composting. The brambles didn't stand a chance. 🌱🔥

A huge shoutout to Lea, who joined us for her first ever GoodGym session — welcome to the fam, we hope the brambles didn't scare you off! 🎉🍾 Also out there getting stuck in: Michael (fresh from his Big Half heroics) Katie, and Adam, all bringing the usual mix of chat, chaos and quality composting content.

Ruskin Park is looking noticeably less prickly thanks to this lot. Great work all round — fitness sorted, good deed done, brambles thoroughly put in their place. 🏃🍾❤️

See you next time, Lambeth! 🧰✨
