This afternoon on the spur of the moment? Sabir and myself met to rehydrate all the colourful flowers in the Gg plot. This was very much welcomed and a promise made for more drink on Tuesday.

This morning we met to water the plot as still not enough rain has fallen to quest their thirst. A good workout in the morning to awakening the body. Plus you get to see friends, bonus. Cheers to the gentlemen that interrupted their rowing session to rescue the bucket that got away.

This evening before the main tuesday event, Anna and myself did a bit of dipping the buckets and thus watering the Gg plot. Surprisingly it has survived all that the weather has thrown at us.

The ducks were waiting at the Gg bucket watering hole as we prepared to give the plants in our plot some much needed fuel to keep them thriving.

GoodGym had a great day at the Big Sports Day in Wimbledon Park celebrating sport in the borough. We met with Roxanne Bennett, the Sports and Leisure Manager, from Merton Council, Councillor Caroline Cooper Marbiah, and the Mayor of Merton, Councillor Slawek Szczepanski, and told them all about how great GoodGym is and how we can support local charities and community groups in the borough once GoodGym Merton is launched. We just need three more taskforce to launch so if you want to be part of the process then let us know!

We spent an hour walking round the event handing out leaflets and explaining what we do. Jade got into networking mode and chatted with all the community groups and created valuable connections face-to-face to let them know how GoodGym Merton could support them.

So lovely to meet Caroline and work with Jade and bond as the founding group of Goodgym Merton. Very excited for the launch! Watch this space.

This evening for the first of our double sessions tonight Claire, Anna, Saber and myself met to water these two plots to encourage their growth - flowers and veg alike. This was all taken in gratefully as they still await any rain 🙏.
