Abdulkadir earned their community cape by completing their first community mission.
Abdulkadir completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Abdulkadir was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.

Five goodgymers went along to help the local community with citizen science activities at the Tiny Forests near Mutton Brook. There are four Tiny Forests there now, and there is a lot of work to do: litter picking, tree measuring, and various other experiments.
London Climate Action Week could not have come at a more appropriate time, with the whole of Europe baking under record high temperatures. And tree cover in urban areas is a hot topic, as we all battle to keep our cities livable in this new normal.
So it was great to see local citizens caring for their local forest cover: 2,400 trees planted by the community since 2022, with the help of environmental NGO Earthwatch.
Tiny Forests are densely packed areas of tree cover, planted using the now-famous Miyawaki method . The tree cover is all native species and they are ideal for urban environments, where space is at a premium.
We all got busy with different tasks, while enjoying the sight of butterflies and bees coming to feast on the flowers growing alongside the trees.
Looking forward to the next event at the Tiny Forests!

Six Goodgymmers gathered for another double whammy of leafleting for the lovely Phoenix Cinema and the artsdepot.
A few of us were already warmed up: Daniel and Kadir trekked over from Henley's Corner to the Phoenix. Welcome toKadir forhis first session! George and Subham ran from their respective corners of Finchley. Rachel and Theodore had some catching up to do, so we set off on a long trek down into the larger houses in East Finchley.
Starting just off the Bishops Avenue, we trekked down a side road to the A1 and back again, then up Deansway to the top of Brim Hill. Then we did all the way down Brim Hill to Hill Top, followed by Hill Top to Brookland Rise, where we finally ran out of leaflets. Daniel and Kadir parted ways with us then, as they'd almost clocked 10km for the evening, while the rest of ran the remaining path back to the Phoenix.
All in, one of our longer runs, clocking in a little over 5km, excluding the many drives and pathways we walked up and down, and a great boost for cultural visibility.
