Welcome to Lucy for your first GoodGym session! 👏

With the Together Trust festival just around the corner, we were entrusted with another big box of advertising leaflets to distribute around some more of the Cheadle streets. Lucy will also be singing as part of a choir at the festival too!

Sian, previous Stockport Area Activator, joined for a sharp run to the high street, before delivering to houses nearby. Great to see some friendly faces!

Our first area, just beyond the main road contained a range of beautiful gardens, with olive trees, lavender, pristine hedges and benches, plus lots of cats! While delivering, we did try and find the secret garden and may have a quick look at Rightmove for nearby house prices...

Next up was Oak Road, with bigger driveways and a few more dogs lurking behind the letterboxes. We certainly covered a few tree species 🌳 in Ash, Acorn, and Chestnut Avenue being covered.

We made a big dent in the box load of leaflets, with another batch set for next week. Likely covering an area nearer Stockport so check the sessions listing for that.

With temperatures reaching 30°C over the past couple of days, we opted not to run tonight and instead just walked to deliver the second set of leaflets advertising Together Trust's festival on Saturday 4th July.

Thanks to those that joined, next sessions for Together Trust leaflets are Tuesday 16th and Tuesday 23rd June 🙌

A lovely group run session delivering leaflets on behalf of the Together Trust - thanks guys! Same again next week 🙌

It was another splendid evening of doing good and getting fit for Mandy, Hannah, Hazel, Laura, and Ben! Even the weather behaved itself—clearly trying to make a great first impression on Mandy for her debut GoodGym session. Welcome, Mandy!👏

They kicked things off with a gentle jog from Life Leisure, retracing their steps from last week’s flyering adventure. Along the way they scooped up Hannah, who joined the squad just in time for a highly strategic flyering discussion. This was not your average leaflet drop—oh no. This was tactical - there were brainstorming. There were zones. There was enthusiasm. Mandy even confessed she’d been training her cardio for two weeks in preparation, which is the kind of dedication that deserves its own medal… or at least a candy!

Their mission covered about 4km filled with catch-ups, stories, suspiciously timed CCTV appearances, dog barks ranging from friendly to “please don’t eat me,” and plenty of laughs/smiles😊—all while delivering flyers for Together Trust. Mission accomplished, team!

Slightly underwhelmed by tonight’s illuminations (they squinted, they tried), Laura is leading to chase brighter lights next week in Warwick’s. Don’t miss it—it's the GoodGym Stockport year-ender, and they fully intend to finish 2025 with a sparkle! ✨💖

It turned out to be a surprisingly lovely evening for Hazel and Ben as they took on the festive mission of flyering for Together Trust’s Christmas appeal. Armed with three different sets of flyers and questionable enthusiasm 😄, they made their way from house to house like two very cold, very determined Christmas elves.🥶👻

The adventure began with a gentle jog—more of a shuffle, really—from Life Leisure Cheadle toward the nearest residential area. The pavements were icy, the air was nippy, and the running pace could best be described as “heroically slow,” but the reward was worth it. The neighbourhood was lit up so brightly it felt like passing through mini Blackpool Illuminations—every house competing for the “Most Likely to Blind Your Neighbours” award.🎇🪅🎊

And now… the saga continues!

Join them for Round Two of Together Trust flyering quest on December 2nd, where they’ll bravely conquer the remaining half of the flyers. Bring your festive spirit—and maybe some thermal socks.

Five GoodGym Stockport volunteers spent the evening delivering leaflets around Cheadle to help promote upcoming events run by the Together Trust charity.

The team worked efficiently to make sure as many local residents as possible heard about the great work the charity does.

It was lovely to welcome Meera back after a few months away and to introduce our newest and youngest recruit — 11-month-old Olive — who charmed everyone she met!

With cheerful chats, a bit of light exercise, and lots of community spirit, it was another feel-good evening of doing good together.
