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. 😎

All the food was delivered and shared on time, with enough for over 80 customers.

Today, three GoodGymers served up support and smiles at Vauxhall Gardens Comm(Unity) center.

Yesterday, a few delivery delays actually gave us the perfect excuse to sit down and get to know our newest member, Charlotte! She has been volunteering at the Vauxhall Community Centre for years, and we are absolutely thrilled to welcome her to the GoodGym family.

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! 🌸🥰

GoodGym volunteers helped serve local residents at the foodbank, sharing food, smiles and a warm welcome. A simple act of volunteering that helped brighten the day and strengthen community connections.
