Share the love

All 8 of us managed to get to St Paul's Learning Centre (eventually) - injuries allowing (pre not during the Group Run/Walk - no injury book entries needed!).

We welcomed Dushyant to their first ever GoodGum and Lucy to their first Bristol GoodGym, we're already used to seeing Russ now he's been back in Bristol for over a week.

The task was improving the look of the outside of the building, mainly weeding, and with a variety of tools, we soon had the front mostly weed-free, but not enough for the perfectionists Freya and Jason who may come back in their own time to finish! It was great to receive feedback from people using the Learning Centre and spread the positivity of GoodGym.

Vaguely Northern Darren had a note from his mum so wasn't able to bend down much, despite people offering bigger and bigger tools so I didn't have to bend down! A note is a note however so he worked hard on 'good vibes' and recording the event for all time with skilled photo-taking.

See you all again next time
