Tonight was our return to the Grow Cardiff project at the Grangetown Medical Centre, we hadn't been here for a year when the project first started. During this time, they had managed to secure some money to create a more accessible site, so we were welcomed with a brand new flooring and the start of the new beds.

We met Chris and had a brief chat about the time inbetween our visits, before getting to the list of jobs for the evening.

• Move slabs to the rear of the centre.
• Infill compost bins with green waste.
• Water the fruit trees / plants behind the medical centre.
• Litter pick around the centre.
• Move surplus building materials to the rear of the centre.
• Sort area under the Cherry Tree, level the soil,
• Remove rubble from borders.

A lot of work and what looked to be a great workout on a glorious sunny evening. No time to stand about, lets get to it!

Before we had even arranged the garden jobs, Jonathan and Neda were out litter picking in the sunshine. Gold Star to you both....⭐

Su and Imy were onto the borders, taking out any large stones and moving them to the large middle planter. Lucy was sweeping and cleaning, Adam (after breaking the rake) was on leveling duty with Dylan.

Darren and Andrew were with wheelbarrows, moving bricks, slabs and rubble from behind the polytunnel to behind the medical centre. Martin, took to the green waste compost area and filled it, then joining the wheelbarrow crew to build their very own Jenga stack.

It was a great evening helping and we certainly kept ourselves fit tonight. Well deserved food after the run....

Join us next week as we will be keeping with the Nature theme this month over at Cwtch Together.

Last night, the GoodGym crew took to the streets near Roath Library for a litter pick that was anything but trashy! Our team of litter legends included Michael, Darren, Lucy, Jonny, Dave, and Martin, who were ready to clean up and have a wheely good time.

Jonathan stumbled upon a collection of empty cans, and we couldn't help but say he was can-do attitude personified.

By the end of the evening, the area around Roath Library was spotless, and our team felt like they had truly cleaned up their act. Thanks to everyone for making this litter pick a bin-credible success! Let's keep running and picking, GoodGym!

Tonight the gallant goodgymers were out for the WIN, cyclists, walkers and runners came together like some sort of Bolt-on Wanderers, ready to take on the mighty task. Leaving Cardiff City to take on a new challenge. Tonight was all about helping at the young persons homeless hostel, cleaning the back space and games pitch. This was our first time "playing" at Hostel Villa, but armed with our Arsenal of tools we went around to the "Notareal Forest" to start our battle against the fallen leaves of Mulchester City.

There were nods to the history of football as we saw the revival of sweepers tonight....and didn't they do WELL alongside the wonders of the wheelBARROW transfers. The leaves piled up defeated, and the grounds resembled a NEWcastle united by the goodgymers.

After a well deserved winning photo, the team took to the streets to celebrate the win and get a Tot-in-em after a hot-spur run.

12 Goodgym folks headed to Cwtch together to take on the latest Tuesday task(s). We split up to cover the different tasks - Jonathan, Flo, Emily, Flo, and Kerry worked inside on bleaching the hall floor. Don't worrry baby, it looked prestine by the time it was done.

God only knows why but Darren was allowed to sand down the door to try and make it open easier. He was giving off some dust and a lot of good vibrations.

The rest of the team weren't surfin' USA, they were busy outside clearing the driveway of weeds and clutter. Wouldn't it be nice if weeds didn't exist!

Goodgym really get around...... after team photo it was time to run back to the Glassworks for a games night, where we all had Fun Fun Fun.

Happy January

The recent sub zero temperatures may have moved on but GG Cardiff still managed to find and clear some snow during its recent litter pick (in the form of a see through resealable bag). It went into the rubbish bags alongside the usual cans, bottles, vapes and cigarette packets.

7 Goodgymers turned out for the pre group run pick and cleared another 3 bags of litter from the city's streets
