We celebrated a record-breaking turnout tonight with 16 GoodGymers helping at Critical Support for our last group session of the year.

With so many hands on deck, our efficiency actually outpaced our supplies. Not to be deterred, as the paper was getting low the team pivoted to wrapping smaller gifts to maximise the output, then using decorative tape to get creative and finish the job. The final result was a fantastic pile of presents ready to go.

Great work everyone, and welcome to Safiya, Kriziya , Roisin, and Lili - Congrats on completing your first task, we hope to see you again soon.

We went full elf mode today at Deen City Farm to help bring some festive magic to Santa's Grotto!

Our four-person team divided and conquered the tasks: two of us were on crucial Nice List verification duty, checking if all the excited children had made the cut (Spoiler: they all did!). The other two volunteers were essential in the Grotto, capturing those perfect photos with Santa and ensuring every child received a gift. It was a busy day, with a long queue but luckily the weather was on our side with the sun shining.

Great job team and a big welcome to Sophia, well done on your first good deed.

We hit the ground to support Merton Council's White Ribbon Walk in Morden Hall Park today.

Starting with a stroll from the Civic Centre to the meeting point to join with others and earn some steps, it also gave us the opportunity to meet new and familiar faces whilst raising awareness for the White Ribbon campaign.

Huge thanks to Merton Council for inviting us to support this important event. Every step counts towards ending male violence against women.
