Coventry GoodGym , tonight you showed how hard you work and how fantastic you all are. !6 members of Coventry GoodGym ran 6.5km to support Eric Williams House in their improvements of their outdoor areas to clear brambles and weeds to allow the residents to plant and use their outdoor areas.

Tonight, the rain threatened but never actually appeared as we ran and chatted to Andy Street- West Midlands Mayor. It was great to chat to Andy and tell him all about the first 6 months of GoodGym Coventry.

The team soon got to work at Eric Williams house, clearing weeds, bramble, scraping paths and enabling the residents to start using the flower beds more.

It was great to meet not only Terri again, but also some staff and residents at the home- including one lady who was 101!

Following the task, we did some quick fire hill reps and then we headed back to Drapers to stretch. Thanks again for working so hard. See you all next week, Liz x
