Packed up cages and cages of second hand clothes from the "summer collection" to return to the warehouse, ready for the delivery of the "autumn/winter collection" tomorrow! Traid Clapham Junction will open again on Thursday, grab yourself a new season bargain and reduce fast fashion waste.

We piled the posh poo perfectly at Paradise plus some post project PE!

If you think it's hard getting your mouth round that tongue twister you should have seen the challenge we took on last night during our Monday session! Yes, the puns were well and truly flying as we shoveled our way through a mountain of horse poo which had been kindly donated by the posh horses at Richmond riding school.

It was a pleasure to be back at Paradise Cooperative after a little time away. The positivity began early as we met to do our warm up and discuss all the nice things we had done over the weekend. From trips to the dump, football with family, fleabag binging and STP it sounds like everybody made the most of it.

It was a glorious evening for a run which was topped off with a minor miracle. For the first week ever we cracked the code for the gate and the shed first time!

This meant we could get straight on with the mane task at hand. With one team making sure the barrows were filled in a strong and stable manner, it was up to the group to giddy it all up into the compost bins. While we worked we covered lots of conversation points, including the fact that yesterday marked 100 days until it's a very mare-y Christmas! Thanks for all the punspiration team, and especially to Annabel and Sophie for this run report title.

After the task we ran over to Wandsworth common to make the most of the last of the light and knock out a quick tabata session. It was fast and furious and covered all our major muscle groups - well done team!

I mentioned a couple of upcoming sessions that might be of interest, including this one tonight handing out food and other resources for rough sleepers in Trafalgar square and also this one on the following Tuesday in Leicester square sorting donations for a refugee centre that could really do with some more help if you're free!

Next Monday in Wandsworth we're going to be helping out at the Scout Hall, hope to see you there!

There was lots to celebrate last night, from Catherine's victory at the Great North Run yesterday to welcoming Ammrs to his very first group run - give him a big cheer!

Unfortunately not everything went quite go to plan, as when we turned up to Battersea Park's lovely therapy garden, our task owner for the evening was nowhere to be seen! However, that did not stop us getting to work. After a quick phone call for the code to the shed we got stuck in to a spot of weeding along the paths.

The garden is used as therapy for adults with a variety of conditions such as autism, physical disability, mental ill health and learning difficulties. It also offers various programs such as vocational training and support to enable unemployed disabled Londoners to overcome their barriers to employment and access job opportunities, and helps stroke survivors improve their mental and physical health by working with horticultural therapists. There are workshops for adults whose mental health means they need an environment designed to minimise stress and anxiety and also women only gardening programs.

It may not have seemed like we had loads of big jobs to do while we were there, but with the garden being used for such impactful activities on a day to day basis, helping keep it weed free and welcoming really does make a difference. And we also got to admire the huge courgette flowers and opium poppies!

After half an hour of work we found a nice spot in the park for our fitness session, which last night focused on upper bodies. Our traps, lats, biceps and triceps all got a thorough workout - and we even got joined by a beautiful dog keen to get involved!

It may feel like Autumn is drawing in, but we've got plenty to keep you warm over the coming months! Why not join me for a plog along the river tonight helping collect polluting litter? Next week in Wandsworth we're going back to Paradise cooperative garden and then on Tuesday we have a great task at Trafalgar Square handing out food and sorting donation for rough sleepers. Hope to see you there!

Jordan, Sophie and newbie Matt spent a wholesome Saturday morning attending to vine tomatoes, weeding, clearing apples and turning over the soil as our community garden moves into a new season. Bonus points (or deeds??) for also spontaneously helping Omnibus set up for the festival over at The Polygon.

Today, I had the unbeleafable pleasure of helping Ms. M tidy up her garden, and boy, did we grow through the process! I started by pulling the weeds, making sure to root out every last one of those pesky intruders. Then, cleared the flower beds, giving her plants some much-needed room to blossom. Afterward, i cleaned up the walkway, so she can now stroll through her garden. All in all, it was a blooming success, and Ms. M's garden is looking thymely and pristine once again!

This week, I had the pleasure of helping Mrs S with her overgrown patio. The task was to clear the patio of weeds, which had taken over and made it difficult for Mrs S to enjoy her outdoor space. Armed with gloves, a bin bag, and some determination, I got stuck in.

The weeds had really made themselves at home, but bit by bit, I managed to reclaim the patio for Mrs S. It was a satisfying job, seeing the transformation as the space opened up again.

I didn't have time to get all the weeds (sigh!), but Mrs S was grateful for the help and impressed with what was achieved in just over an hour!

Looking forward to the next GoodGym mission!
