Share the love

A collaborative run report.... Drop your photos and stories here ๐Ÿ™‚

We're going to put the FUN back into functional!!

Keep up the great work everyone.

Where's the best place to go in a heatwave? Turns out it's the Peak District to spend time with like minded, positive people. Plus easy access to shady woods and a river to swim/dip into.

From serious chats around future GG plans, safeguarding, inclusion, participation, Task Force and sustainability to great opportunities to be active with runs, walks, fitness & yoga. There was also lots of time to meet other GoodGymers from around the country and have fun with Quizzes, karaoke and cocktails!

After Manuelโ€™s fantastic disco karaoke experience, the best title I can come up with is โ€œItโ€™s Fun to Stay at The YHAโ€

Where else are you gonna learn about the challenges of inner-city deprivation, the dance moves to Cotton Eye Joe, and who invented the hovercraft all in the same weekend...? ๐Ÿคฉ

An AGM like no other! Such a good weekend meeting loads of my peers and colleagues to exchange ideas. All are welcome (and actively encouraged) to come up and visit/help in Barnsley whenever!
