31 Goodgymers ran 5km and cleared five HUGE bags of leaves and debris for Coram Fields

Welcome to newbies - Marina, Zura, Isobel and Susann

In the news this week:

  1. Goodgym hit 100,000 Good Deeds on Wednesday - thank you for being part of it and making a difference to your community!
  2. We welcomed Saul from Kirklees who's the new trainer for Goodgym launching up there in September :)

After doing an amazing photo with the 100,000 good deeds banner we warmed up and headed to Coram Fields - a new task! This is a fantastic charity which provides space for children to play and has activities for everyone in the community. It's a seven acre site, with a little farm, a wildlife area and football pitches - lots of space for us to do good.

We split into two teams, one led by Frances which cleared bark, debris and leaves from the Wildlife Reserve. Working hard they watched out for the bee's before heading out to help to sweep some more leaves.

Do bee's eat honey?

Meanwhile a team of 16, overseen by John from Coram Fields, weeded and cleared leaves in an area before turning over the soil with forks and removing any roots in the hardened soil. This will be used for planting some lovely flowers.

After 35 minutes of hard work we'd accumulated five huge bags of waste to be recycled - nice! We took a group photo and headed to Russell Square led by Saul, he out us through our paces - with everyone getting a good workout in.

Thanks for coming guys, lovely evening as always. I'm away for the next couple of weeks, Pritesh will be leading you when you'll be helping Cecil Sharp House and Castlehaven - sign up here
