One goodgymmer helped Mr P to loosen a tricky bath tap. Luckily they didn't even have to get the tools out though the jog to the task was hard work in the heat🌞

Three Goodgymers meet at Durley Chine and did a litter pick what was so nice was all the public saying thank you for doing it.It made it so worth while. But Bournemouth council have let us down they have promised more bins on the sea front but there seems to be less which is not a good sign as in this worm weather the beach is going to be very busy.In the time we spent litter picking we managed to collect two sacks of litter so we have made a big difference to this area of the beach .

Grounded and Goodgym go way back to the early days of Goodgym Bournemouth.So when they asked for help with a new promotion to help raise funds to keep going and to continue doing the good work that they do i could not say no .I collected the leaflets and choose the roads to deliver to.So i set off to deliver some 180 leaflets which I managed to do.I do hope Grounded get the support they need from this promotion.

After a drizzly, grey afternoon in Bournemouth on Friday, the wind picked up and blew the clouds away in time for a (almost) perfectly pink sunset to guide the 3, 5 and 10km walkers for the University Hospitals Dorset NHS Charity who were raising money for life-changing breast cancer treatment. Just one GoodGymmer, Eleanor, was pitched at the 5km turning point, glow stick and sign in hand, to marshal and cheer-on the walkers as they paved their way across the seafront, starting at the Pier, passing the Toft ZigZag (3km), Boscombe Pier (5km) and Sobo, in Southbourne (10km).
