GoodGymers were building character and fences this week as we supported the Strawberry Fair site team with the festival build.

Meeting volunteer coordinator, Kirsty, we donned our hi vis jackets and, after a tricky time matching hands to gloves, we were kitted out and ready to go. 🦺 🧤

We took a tour of the site, which is bigger than ever, requiring 1000s of metres of fencing. Getting our priorities straight, we got stuck in putting up protective fencing around generators and the bar. Taking the lead from Chris, who had definitely found his calling, we lifted and shifted A LOT of heavy bases and fence panels. Supported by the site team who supplied the panels on a forklift (which Caroline was very disappointed not to be able to drive) it was a real community effort. We had great fun working together as a slick operation and getting a proper strength workout 🏋️‍♀️

Despite being on the fence about photos, we captured some great shots of GoodGymers at work, and the team even made it onto the Strawberry Fair build video 🎥 (with two solo appearances from Scott ⭐)

Before we left, the Strawberry Fair Comms team asked for a quick interview and Caroline did a fantastic job as the face of GoodGym Cambridge. 🎬

Although timings didn't quite align for this session, it was great to meet Fufu and we look forward to seeing him at another session soon!

We go again Sunday to take it all down again 💪
