Litterally event done by goodgym in April

Barnet Report written by Paul Salman

GoodGym – April Plogging Report

It’s been fantastic to see 12 members take part in our April plogging initiative—an open, rolling event encouraging litter picking while walking or running. This flexible format allowed members to contribute in their own time, either solo or with a friend, making it easy to stay active, connected, and community-minded.

By taking just 20 minutes to clean up their local area, members made a visible difference to our streets, parks, and paths—while also enjoying the physical and mental benefits of being outdoors and moving with purpose. The event has highlighted how small, self-led acts can build momentum for wider community pride and environmental care.

Thank you to everyone who took part and shared photos—we look forward to continuing these small but powerful missions!

Goodgym's got it in the bag

Barnet Report written by George Ttoouli (he/him)

A wonderful gathering of local residents, Goodgymmers and environmental activists descended once again on the green at Warnham Road to blitz the trash.

Things have been better of late, but fly-tippers dumped a suitcase and holdall full of bags, rucksacks and wallets under a tree by the allotment fences. We dove into the undergrowth with back up garden tools to clip brambles and make space. Teams tackled the road all the way up to the Wren Academy gates, and down the other end, and circled the bushes, rooting out plastics, bottles and other nonsense. We found two cut tyres and a canister and old laptop dumped nearby.

Some neighbours near the green came out to thank us and talk to us about the problems they've been facing, so we're planning something to make the space nicer for people and nature in the coming months, once we have a bit of critical mass. And Goodgym will be there to transform the space for the community!

Paul spotted some bluebells in the bushes and shared a fun fact: half the world's bluebells are in the UK, and back in medieval times, they were actually used as glue for arrowheads! English bluebells are a climate indicator because they grow in the warming weather after winter, but before the tree canopy has started to shade the ground below.

Brook and Roll: Testing the Waters with Earthwatch Sunday science lesson

Barnet Report written by Paul Salman

Fantastic opportunity to survey local river (The Lee) as it passes through arable landscape. Very surprising results with high levels of pollutant scored. Very interesting science lesson as well.

I carried out my monitoring at Dollis Brook in Finchley, a serene and easily accessible section of the stream. The shallow water and good access made it an ideal location for phosphate and nitrogen testing using the Earthwatch kit. I found the process surprisingly easy and, perhaps not so surprisingly, very relaxing — there’s something naturally calming about listening to the water and the birds around you. It’s a great way to engage with your local river, and I would thoroughly recommend trying it yourself. Based on my tests, Dollis Brook appeared to be in fairly good condition, especially considering its urban setting.

Litter-ally Fit: GoodGym’s Coldfall Cleanup.

Barnet Report written by Paul Salman

The Coldfall Chronicles: A Heroic Ramble Through the Woods of Barnet

On a balmy spring evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden hue over the dense foliage of Coldfall Woods, a band of intrepid adventurers assembled. Their mission: to aid the venerable Linda and the Friends of Coldfall Woods in their noble quest to rid the forest’s edge of litter and debris. This was no ordinary gathering; it was the GoodGym Barnet brigade, a motley crew of runners, walkers, and cyclists. The Assembled Heroes: • Freya embarking on her maiden voyage with GoodGym Barnet, displayed the enthusiasm of a seasoned explorer. Her strides were purposeful, her spirit indomitable, leading the charge with a vigor that belied her novice status. give her a cheer! • Sally, the seasoned sentinel, took up the rear, ensuring no comrade was left behind. Her experience was a beacon, guiding the group with a steady hand and an encouraging word. • Ewelinaand George, the steadfast foot soldiers, opted for a brisk march, navigating the terain with precision and arriving at the meeting point ahead of the fleet-footed runners—a testament to their superior planning. • Theodore, the youthful chronicler, wielded his camera ( or more like my mobile phone!) like a sword, capturing moments of levity and toil, urging his compatriots to strike poses that would immortalize their efforts in the annals of GoodGym lore.( yes the classic jazz hands.) • Lucinda, a regular presence, brought consistency and cheer, her dedication shining as brightly as the evening sun filtering through the canopy. • Subham, whose past exploits in the realm of frisbee were the stuff of legend, joined the fray despite nursing an injury—a true testament to his unwavering commitment. • Paul, the seasoned runner, with tales about the merits of yoga and the learnings from his dog Gus!

The Quest:

Armed with litter pickers and an unyielding sense of purpose, the group ventured into the underbrush, uncovering hidden caches of refuse that marred the natural beauty of the woods. Each piece of litter collected was a small victory, a step towards restoring the forest to its pristine state. The task, though humble, was carried out with the zeal of knights on a crusade! As twilight descended, the heroes reconvened at the Phoenix, their mission accomplished.

The GoodGym Barnet team may not seek the spotlight, but their consistent efforts in Coldfall Woods ( and other good causes are available ) reflect true heroism.
