Camden Report written by Alex Murtough (he/him)
I remember watching 60 Minute Makeover.
I remember thinking why does Mum take weeks to redecorate.
I remember saying Mum, we could do this in an hour.
I was wrong, folks, and these thoughts circled as we arrived at the Brady for our fourth visit. We'd previously unscrewed brackets, popped out loose rawlplugs, heaved sticky rawlplugs, collectively learnt how to use Polyfilla, worked out the difference between a primer and a normal paint, and applied a primer coat.
Today, our wonderful group of AJ, Suzanna (on her first good deed - congratulations!!), Steve, and Tom were painting our main coat. Choosing our brush or roller of choice, we shared stories and conversation as we turned this community space a warm shade of cream. Two hours disappeared along with the paint, and we made a big dent in the work we need to do to finish the space.
Thanks, everyone, for your work, time, and company this morning - we made a big difference today - and I really appreciate it!!

Greenwich Report written by Rachel Henry
Having gorged ourselves on pizza and beer last weekend for our Christmas social, this week we thought we'd get out to do a little more good before gorging ourselves on more food over the Christmas period. We were raising money for the Bexley and Greenwich Community Hospice who gave us some santa suits for the occassion. We've all scurried these away in our cupboards ready for the next time they're needed - you never know when a Santa emergency might occur.
After a stressful moment getting the suits on and our beards blowing across the university campus, we did a warm up of duck duck goose, which efficiently tore a hole right through the crotch of most of our suits. Never mind, it just made us more relatable.
Our task for the evening was a photo scavenger hunt and so we split into two teams and spent a while running about Greenwich, spreading some joy and being asked for photos with the lovely public, and asking for pictures in return
These featured the following:
Both teams did a cracking job and the worthy winners voted on in our group whatsapp. No hard feelings guys.
And as if it wasn't enough to be in the winning team, special congratulations to Geraldine on 50 good deeds!
Money raised for a great cause, thank you all. Merry Christmas and see you in January :)

What time will you leave the Naval college after the warm up please? Wondering if I can meet you after my gym class at the far end of the tunnel but it might be a bit of a fools errand trying to locate you 😂

Greenwich Report written by Rachel Henry
On a cold November Sunday three of us congregated in hornfair park for a lovely 4k run taking in the sites of Charlton park, Maryon Wilson park with it's guinnea pigs, rabbits and a single beautiful stag. By the way, what do you call a stag with a new hair style? A stag do? Deer oh deer.
Dad jokes aside, we met Lynne and Becky at the common along with more volunteers from the Friends of group and teamed up to tackle our chosen areas of the common land. Soon we were laden with bags full of all sorts of junk, including a washing up bowl and lots of balloons.
It's always a nice start to a Sunday morning, chatting with friends who want to protect our green spaces.
Great work team, until next time!
