On a blustery Saturday morning, one GoodGymer set out to promote Richmond CVS’s upcoming trustee recruitment event for local charities in the borough.
Armed with a stack full of trust-worthy leaflets, Adam went from door to door to raise awareness, the event takes place on Wednesday 15th October between 5-8pm for those of a trust-worthy nature.

This evening three lovely GoodGymmers took to Kew to deliver leaflets for Kew Community Association, Richmond CVS and GoodGym too. A bit of a different area for us to visit, we got to enjoy all of the sweet little streets while we posted!

Saturday looked to be the best of the long weekend days weather-wise and the 5 GGers gathering at ETNA (the East Twickenham Neighbourhood Association) for the second leaflet drop of the week were rewarded with warm sunshine.
Our task was to finish off distributing a stack of leaflets advertising the Volunteer Fair at the RHACC on Wednesday 21st May, added to which were a stack of cards promoting ETNA’s 40th Anniversary event on Sunday 18th May.
We welcomed back Maz who joined for his first GG task on Monday and bizarrely wanted to do more leafleting. Our route took us around the streets behind ETNA before cross Richmond Road and finishing up on the streets off Crown Road, where we rewarded ourselves with a coffee after dropping the last leaflets.

A beautiful early summer evening to keep fit by doing good. We started at the Tap with a warm welcome to Mazin for the first time, and a lot of celebratory chat after Lucy completed the London Marathon yesterday 😍
Chatting away, we headed to Richmond CVS to collect this evening's leaflets before dividing up to cover the roads on the way up to Kew. Lovely doorways, demon letterboxes and evening sun kept us company as the wedge of leaflets receeded until it was time for us to call it a night and head off in our own directions!

An annual task for us that means a good walk rather than a run, delivering leaflets Richmond CVS to advertise their upcoming Trustee Recruitment evening.
The group met at the Tap as usual for an intro and a chat about some upcoming tasks before heading into surrounding residential streets to deliver the leaflets. Many hands make light work and within an hour all leaflets were posted, with time to admire some doors, front gardens, a passing fox and a hairless cat!

Sammy P and JP got together on a beautiful Sunday afternoon to post leaflets for the Volunteer Fair organised by Richmond CVS.
It was wonderful to walk the streets of St Margarets, basking in the warmth of the sunshine and the glow of doing our bit for the local community.
Having said that, it was a relief to finish by 4:30 and to watch a good football team beat a bad football team… relief all round!
