ONEderful start to our 'Day of Good' in Ealing!

On Saturday 18th January GoodGym Ealing hosted a whole day of good deeds in the borough including filling all the volunteer roles at Gunnersbury parkrun, litter picking our way around Gunnersbury Park afterwards, sorting surplus food and organising crates at City Harvest and finishing up for another litter pick in Acton Park.

Part 1:

For good deed number one we filled all the volunteer slots at Gunnersbury parkrun and had GoodGymers from all over London come and support this amazing free weekly event that we love so much. We had people setting up, giving the first timers briefing, marshaling, managing the finish funnel, handing out finish tokens, scanning barcodes, tail walking, pacing as well as helping pack it all away and sort the results.

The full shebang!

If you'd like to help at Gunnersbury parkrun any other week, they always need lovely volunteers to keep the event going every week.

A lush parkrun. First time I have volunteered at a parkrun event and did I pick a mega busy one sorting tokens out! Thank you Liv for organising the day. An ambitious project to put together and execute so very well.
