Tonight’s challenge called for seamless coordination, serious pedal power, and plenty of footwork.

The action kicked off with bulbs being delivered by bike to three strategic rendezvous points across the borough, packaged and ready for distribution.

As darkness fell and the evening drizzle set in, the hardy volunteers split into smaller teams. Armed with map pins/addresses, and bags loaded with brown paper packages, we set off on foot to make the drops.

This mammoth logistical feat may only happen once a year, but it’s always a firm favourite for clocking up extra steps while covering plenty of ground. Despite the murky weather, spirits stayed high, every delivery was completed along with a bunch of good deeds.

Well done, team - Merton is going to look fantastic come spring!

Hauled a massive collection of books from Mr J to drop to charity. It seems this was only Chapter One - Mr J revealed there's another stash waiting to be bagged up, so bookmark this space to head back for the sequel!

What a treat it was to be back at Canon's House. Every time I'm there the sun shines and today was no exception! Sarah and I gathered the tools and then Jade (who was coming from another Good Gym task) and I set to work. We litter picked and weeded until it was looking spick and span! We will be back soon!

What a gorgeous autumn morning to lend a hand at Morden parkrun! Two of our finest volunteers kicked things off bright and early with course setup, making sure the routes were clear and ready before switching gears to marshal and take on the all-important parkwalker role.

A special shoutout goes to Jon, who traded his usual running shoes for a volunteer vest for his very first time volunteering - a massive congratulations on an awesome debut! It was a brilliant, sunny start to the weekend, proving once again that helping out on the course is just as rewarding as crossing the finish line.

Another great cleaning session clearing up after the lunch service at the homeless drop in centre run by Faith in Action.

Our trusty trio of Jade, Chris and Zahrah (big welcome back from your travels!) soon got stuck in to the table wiping, chair stacking, surface sanitising and floor mopping.

We soon had it under control, leaving no signs that a wonderful lunch had just been served to a host of hungry people.

A team of GoodGymers headed to John Innes Park today expecting to tackle the tricky job of digging out some bamboo. A change of plan meant a slightly less exhausting hour as we instead got stuck into weeding flower beds, which were in need of a good tidy-up.

It just goes to show that at GoodGym, you have to be ready to go with the grow!

From alkanet to dandelions, and a few things we couldn't identify, the team dug in to help get the flower beds looking much neater, helping to make John Innes Park bloom a little brighter.
