There's no better feeling than a hot summer GoodGym evening! Tonight we all get nettled at Bedford Fields, weeding all the front ready for the Green Fair on Saturday. Jubz & Alice were instructed to 'dig like a badger' by Beth when digging out wood chip! Khara & Megan were troopers & entertained some children that were at the garden by letting them help paint some wooden slats & Christian gave them a lift through the garden in a wheelbarrow! They were delighted!

We finished off by eating some raspberries in the garden & running back to Heart.

Welcome to Charlotte & Robbie on their first session, we hope to see you again soon.

This evening, 12 GoodGymers came together to do a quick clean at Heart before using the space for our second group sound bath.

I'd like to thank everyone for helping me out with my training to become a sound bath practitioner. For two group case studies, I've had a very willing group of GoodGym members as participants:)

The space isn't ideal as there was some distractions so I would need a quieter space next time.

Lovely to see Tav visiting from GoodGym Colchester & it was also good to see some weekenders join us on a Wednesday too.

We finished off with a search for a phone and a drink in the bar where we talked about Jubz's new car...I even got a guided tour!

Tonight, 10 GoodGymers ran a 5K round trip to Hartley Park to litter pick. We'd started the job on Saturday when we filled 5 bags of rubbish & tonight we filled 13 bags. We really made a huge difference to the park & I think the residents will notice a big change tomorrow. It just shows what a difference GoodGym cam make in such a short period of time.

The highlight was meeting a ferret who was out on his nightly walk...yes, really!

Welcome to newcomers Umair & Brandon, we hope to see you again soon.

Thanks to Jason for driving the kit to the task & to Helen for another great run. I know we moan about the hills but we do appreciate them really (honest)!

...then get out of the kitchen!

Last night we ran 2.5K from Heart & headed up to Bedford Fields where we met Beth who tasked us with various jobs. The group got to work clearing paths, digging and continuing to help build the kitchen in the cabin.

It was a cold night but the 2.5K run back helped warm us up again.

Welcome to newcomers Sarah & Jin and welcome back to Megan. We hope to see you again soon.
