Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
8 top Goodgymmers met the lovely Dawn at Rose Bowl Youth Club last night. The GoodGym Islington crew had been called out to offer our assistance with garden maintenance and green fingered tasks as the darker nights draw in. Plenty of leaf sweeping in October, particularly useful for clearing up the playground for football loving youngsters! Well done everyone!

Compton Terrace Gardens- Volunteer Session

A smashing community mission for those partaking in Highbury Fields or Finsbury parkrun on a Saturday morning!
A friendly gardening group started to look after the park about 10 years ago. We are always looking for more help - with planting, mulching, pruning, and all the other things a garden needs.
Everyone welcome, no special skills needed! Lots of fresh air and a nice chance to meet local people. We meet once a month on a Saturday morning near the shed in the middle of the Gardens.

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
On a brisk Monday evening (super Autumnal!), Area Activator Simon caught up with Dan and Emily at the Arsenal Community Hub for a lovely run towards Archway, heading North on Sussex Way. After a dynamic warm up and a chat, we made our way up to Caxton House Community Centre on foot.
We met with Rose, one of the key coordinators at Caxton House who treated our running crew to biscuits and water! Our task for the evening was to pack up about 30+ duvets and pillows into vacuum bags, and to shrink them down into portable sizes, ready for various clothing bank projects across the borough. Half of our team helped with packing the bags and ensuring the right contents were added to the correct packs. And the other half of our team used a couple of "Henry Hoovers" to squeeze down the materials to a packable size.
Well done everyone- we did a smashing job of a very satisfying job. Excellent quality control!
