After seven days of the sun being displayed at St Mary's church tonight bought the spectacle to an end. I was one of the people helping people to light candles and to ensure that no one was singed in the process. People left the church with smiles and hopefully nice memories.

4 goodgymers got stuck in at the foodbank. We packed, weighed, sorted and stacked parcels whilst chatting to foodbank users and eyeing up pies!

We joined Fratton Big Local for their annual lantern parade.

Our first job was getting all the lanterns lit up, which was an incredibly fiddly process. The lantern makers then started to arrive so it was all hands on deck to reunite lantern with maker, or hand out spare donated lanterns.

Teeny GoodGymer Felix had lots of fun giving the lanterns cuddles!

Aoife was given the giant FBL wearable lantern for the parade, and was supervised by Ellie in her now famous light up cape.

The rest of the team carried lanterns whilst trying to keep parade goers and excited members of the public on the allocated half of the road. Having the rolling road closure this year made the whole event feel bigger and safer for everyone involved, which was super.

3 goodgymers cycled to St Mary's to help out at the launch of the Sun in St Mary's. We helped direct people to the correct doors, oversea events and hand out cake. all under the majesty of the sun.
