Bournemouth Report written by Caprice McWilliams
Tonight's session was to help our friends at Hope Housing. Daryl and Caprice ran to the session where they were joined by Milly, Sophie, Emma and Eleanor. With summer just around the corner it was time for their charity shop to swap from winter stock to summer collection. The group got to work sorting bags of donations, placing summer clothing into their labeled box. The group agreed it was a very satisfying task, seeing the boxes fill in no time at all. Women's tops and dresses seemed to be the most popular donation. Once all the bags were distributed between the large plastic boxes the GoodGymers said their goodbyes. Hope Housing have asked for our help with some gardening and some point so watch this space for more details!

Bournemouth Report written by Bournemouth runner
This morning, eight Goodgymmers Emma, Sophie, Milly, James, Sue, Daryl, Keith and Lea, met at TOSH eager to get going. We spread out as several rooms needed painting. Keith was master filler again, looking for holes and making them disappear. Daryl attacked the kitchen backsplash with vigour, so that it shone after he had finished. James opted for the atrium as he spends a lot of time in there during his workshops. And as he said: “then I can look at the room and think: I painted that!”. You certainly did, James. Sue was filling holes as well as painting in the atrium. And Millie, Sophie and Emma, who amazingly managed to get there in spite of busses not turning up, concentrated on painting the meeting room. All this very much appreciated by Cora and Holly who supplied us with delicious Monkey Bread and Garlic and Chilli Jam knot bread…. And with a treat like that, we were left wondering: “when is our next task here?!?!”

We are hoping that refreshing the space will make it more welcoming for all of the community groups that call the space home, while being more enticing for future groups too. We want to give back to all of the diverse and wonderful users of the space.

Tonight's session was to distribute flyers on behalf of Sendisass4BCP. They had asked for our help to post flyers to specific GP's and schools in the local area. Runners; Julie, Daryl, Katie, Eleanor and Caprice met at The Brewhouse and made their way to the first of 11 locations. After successfully posting their first flyer they then made their way to location number two. They were met there by runners; Emma, Sophie and Milly who then joined them on the mission. They then ran as a group to the other locations, posting not just the Sendisass4BCP but our very own GoodGym flyers. The group weaved through the streets of Bournemouth doing a big loop and they managed 10 out of 11 locations. (they couldn't seem to find one of them) After a successful mission the group were shocked to discover that the total distance covered was 7K. Time flies when you have fun! The group still have a few more areas to cover so next week will be another flyer drop. See you there!
