7 GoodGymers braved the WINTER chill to make a difference in Camden!

It didn't feel like spring is just around the corner last night... because of... the cold... and the rain... and the smiles that sometimes look like grimaces when the wind shoots through!

Not that that stopped this lovely group of good deeding heroes!

Ariane, Danny, Imogen, Steve, Theo (new to the Camden group – welcome!), and Thierry (new to GoodGym – welcome!) must have been the hardest working group in Camden last night!

Amidst 'the weather' (!) they started out by moving an enormous pile of choc-full bin liners, emptying two crates, and sorting through an assortment of wood and metal 💪

And they then turned their magical clearing hands to a greenhouse, removing everything in the most orderly and quick manner I have ever witnessed ❤️

Before they finally got everything ready for our return visit (SOON!) when we will lift the greenhouse, walk the greenhouse, and deposit the greenhouse in a more permanent home ☺️

Thank you, everyone!

9 GoodGymers caught 60 good deeding minutes in Camden!

Nestled on an innocuous side road — out of reach from Kentish Town's bustle — is a super special and wonderfully accessible building...

..the Greenwood Centre serves local people with disabilities and it is all glass and sharp design and...

...community green spaces too!

Which is where this special group — of Ariane, Danny, Kamil, Karen, Lydia, Pritika, Steph, and Steve — spent 60 wonderful minutes on Wednesday!

Together we:

💚 Dug out a (huge) planter, removed (so many) deadwood branches, and installed new irrigation!

💚 Decanted stones and gravel and other helpful materials into small bags ready for easy access and use :)

💚 Watered sprouting broccoli!

💚 Cleared and sorted the tool shed :)

💚 Weeded a paving area leaving it neat and tidy!

Thank you so much, everyone!

11 GoodGymers brought community (and muscle!) to this special North London green space!

Nestled between houses and flats in Holly Lodge Estate is a blossoming green space for the community.

Nurtured and designed by Growing Green (a wonderful charity) this vacant space is steadily becoming an actively loved space for everyone.

And we were there to lend a very helpful hand yesterday morning!

Our group of...

💚 Goodgym new starters Joanna, Krista, Mariama, and Philippa — a big welcome! 💚 GoodGymers from Tower Hamlets, Hammersmith, and beyond — Emma, Fiona, Ilana, James, and Kareem — it was great to see you! 💚 Camden GG regular Danny — it was fab seeing you!!

... made a HUGE difference in 90 busy minutes!

There was digging and weeding and planting and shifting materials and boxes and cutting trees and pruning branches, and our task host (Claudia) was truly AMAZED at how much you all did :)

Thank you so much for your work and energy, everyone! See you soon!
