Flyer Christmas Is Back

Ealing Report written by Kash

This year, the Santa of Acton brought the ladies from the neighbourhood a special gift: an invitation to free fitness classes in January. And no, it wasn't a free month membership that gyms tease people with at the start of each year, but a 6-week programme for 40+ women who want to improve their health while enjoying themselves in a great company.

Santa's four elves: Maria, Sevan, Steph and Kash, took Father Christmas' sack full of leaflets and swooped across the night sky, dropping the flyers through chimneys in Acton's Mill Hill area. Hopefully, the ladies for whom the classes had been designed weren't away for Christmas, and if they were, hopefully the leaflets won't get lost in a sea of other ads before January!

Easy Tree-sy

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice

5 Islington Goodgymmers joined Area Activator Simon by the clocktower in Caledonian Park last night, ready to help Gail and the local volunteer gardening team. We were treated to a gorgeous evening, with big atmospheric Winter skies - perfect for tramping around on the woodland walk.

Our objective for the session was to transport as much sand as possible from the North side of the park (through the arches on the Clocktower aka the finishing line for Caledonian Junior parkrun), and over the the woodland walk and the community amphitheatre. While 4 of our crew used wheelbarrows to shift the material, Matt and Emily used rakes to smooth out the pathways on the other side. Stephane, Alice, Hermione and Simon kept an excellent rhythm going while carting the sand from point to point, allowing us to cover loads of ground by the end of the night. We even created a really smart ring of safe walking ground around a tree in the middle of the path.

Congratulations everyone on completing our last official group task of 2025. Come and join us for our specialFetter Lane Festive Snoopy Trail next Monday!

Box boosted

Ealing Report written by StephDucat

I was back at Mr H flat for more sorting. During the last session we did clear a lot and it also gave him some motivation and did some sorting himself at his pace. Today was sorting out the boxes in the shelf and also the furniture drawers below the TV. Mr H was able to declutter again today and we sorted items by category, then we put then away in order of importance or usage. Found various tools, electrical items. IT equipment, vaping accessories, cleaning products, comics, music tapes, photos. plastic bags etc .... Items sorted and more space done with a full black bag of unwanted items to be put in the rubbish. Mr H got another boost with this session as not alone and motivated by the assistance of sorting things out. Mr H wants us to come back next time to help with the kitchen.

Curiosity killed the cat*

Ealing Report written by StephDucat

Arrived at Mrs A in the morning to be welcomed by her daughter who then introduced me to her as she was inside the flat. After a small chat, i was provided with big black bags as a broom as leaves to be removed. The garden has a massive tree that gives on both her and her neighbours garden. Can you beleaf if : leaves all over the place from the walkway, the flower beds, the flower pots, chairs and in the smaller plants in the garden. I was watched by 2 cats who adventured into the garden - curious on what I was doing? Curiosity killed the cat....NOT!!!No cats were armed in this mission. They watched and went wondering into the other gardens. Ninety minutes later and all the leaves were gone and 4 massive bags appeared in the corner. the garden looked totally different without all the leaves and you could see what was in the flower beds.

Run Santa Run

Ealing Report written by StephDucat

Crispy and sunny Sunday morning in Ealing and 3 Goodgymers ran at an easy pace to Acton Junior parkrun. Chatty run and we tried to convince Santa 🤶 to join us from Acton Market, but he had other matters to deal with. We did a small loop in the park to roughly do a 4km run.
