What a great night of silly fun we had last night at GoodGym Leeds!
It was the night of our summer social so 16 of us met at Heart & ran to Beckett's Park in Headingley. There, we met John who we met from Lighthouse Futures who'd volunteered to run a Dodgeball game for us. Firstly we did a warm up of scarecrow tag & then we had a dodgeball tournament. There was lots of drama with Jubz being targeted with balls, Leah being the last woman standing & Ben & Christian battling it out for the man of the match title! I think the picture of Ben hugging Helen gives you an idea of how competitive he got! It was a great workout & we all thanked John for running a really fun session.
We then finished off with a test of core & upper body strength by playing a game of human hungry hippos or hungry Goodgymers as we called it! This was a challenging game but it was hilarious to watch (maybe not as hilarious to actually be competing)! Well done all!
We finished off with a delicious picnic in the park where we ate a mix of savoury & sweet treats. Well done to Helen Noyes for bringing home made scones...yummy!
We also said a sad farewell to task force member Katie Lees who is leaving Leeds for a new life in Sheffield soon. We'll miss you Katie but thanks for all of your hard work for GoodGym Leeds. Don't forget to visit!
What a great night, thanks so much to everyone who came, we must do it again soon!

Tonight was our biggest Wednesday group since I started! 14 of us headed to help Homeless Hampers to sort through their donations.
We had many jobs between us; we helped unpack & sort donations in the van, we took many many shoes & found pairs for them & sorted them into sizes, we found donations of clothes to give out to homeless people in Leeds, we sorted bundles of towels & sheets into piles & most importantly we ate KitKats!
We nearly had a 15th member when we found traces of a mouse who had been living in a shoe! Fortunately, it decided not to make an appearance...phew! :)
Welcome to newcomers Jeremy & Hashim & welcome back Haimish & Leah to their second sessions. Kat completed her 60th good deed tonight & Uzair did his 10th! Well done & thanks for all you do for GoodGym Leeds.

Leeds Report written by Helen Noyes
5 intrepid GoodGymers made their way to the OWLS allotment for another jolly evening of weeding and clearing paths to improve accessibility and help start the growing season. The weeds grow amazingly well, so hopefully when the crops are sown, they will thrive as well. In fact, we found some new potatoes as we were lifting weeds so someone got a free supper...
