GoodGym was asked back to Peckham Town FC this morning for the third in a successful summer series of tasks to help them out.

Welcome to all the new runners that joined us for the first time today. It was great to see so many new faces!

On arrival, we split into two teams. Most people stayed at the main clubhouse to dig some dirt and create the foundation of a new turnstyle and socially distanced bar area. Those of us that were more hesitant to volunteer for the tough work were transferred to the other clubhouse to paint the changing rooms.

The team were really happy with our work, and promised to sing the praises of GoodGym Southwark throughout the Borough. Keep an eye on Southwark News!

We were also invited to come back to watch a match. If you're keen I'll be in touch soon with more details.

Great work team.
