Rollin Rollin Rollin

Monday 9th March

Written by Ian Gostling

Tonight 8 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 5km to Greenfield Community Centre - home of Baby Bank Norfolk.

We returned to finish painting the Tansy room, that we had started at the beginning of the year. So picked up where we left off with paint rollers, applying a second coat of Frosted Steel which was very satisfying.

It was a fun task to see how many GoodGymer's could fit in a small space with a paint brush!

This room, along with the rest of the venue, was originally painted a mustard yellow so it is now getting a new brighter feel. After an hour the room was complete, so we cleaned up and headed home en mass.

We will be returning to this venue again in a few months time for more painting & gardening tasks.

The Frosted look

Monday 19th January

Written by Ian Gostling

Tonight 7 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 5km to Greenfields Community Centre.

This venue is used by many local groups including a vital Baby Bank hub.

We were tasked with painting one of the rooms regularly used by the Baby Bank to donate much needed equipment & clothing to local families.

The room had long been a drab yellow colour, but within 1 hour it had a new frosted look (a bright shade of grey called 'Frosted Steel').

Shout out to Emily who attended her first session!

And happy 10th Birthday to Goodgym Lewisham group (where I attended their first session 10 years ago today)!

What a re(leaf)

Saturday 8th November 2025

Written by Ian Gostling

Today 6 GoodGymer's ran or cycled to Greenfields Community Centre, close to Catton Park.

A few of us either ran or marshaled at Catton Parkrun before heading to the task.

The venue is surrounded by trees so the building's perimeter was completely covered in leaves. Armed with tools borrowed from Catton Grove (another regular GoodGym task) we got to work sweeping leaves & cutting back weeds.

After 1 hour we had filled up a whopping 27 bags of leaves!.

Woody also used his employment skills to lay out a mesh mat, essentially a black carpet, over the area we had cleared.

Shout Out to Katy joining us for her first session! Well done team.
