Twelve enthusiastic GoodGymers set about sanding old pallets at Wessex School to re-purpose as a stage. Many hands made light work so the task was completed in record time! Fortunately there was plenty of weeding to fill the spare time. Amy won the prize for the largest weed and Ed tackled the stinging nettles. We were careful to leave the pretty cornflowers, strawberry plants and a few wild flowers for the children and bees to enjoy! A fun chatty evening!

Nine painters, four walls. Not even a challenge for GoodGym. A cool spring evening, chatter and laughter. A quintessential GGWM Wednesday night 👌

Five GoodGymers armed with litter pickers attempted a big clean up in the sunshine! Sol was first off the mark tidying up on the way to work. Christine and Carys followed closely behind clearing the streets of Maidenhead. Jane and Angela left the Furze Platt area in a cleaner state than they found it. It was Jane's first Goodgym task and she found it strangely satisfying!

9 GoodGymmers met at Cookham Dean Primary School on a lovely spring evenibg ready to help with some outdoor jobs- cleaning the railings, breaking down an old bench and moving a heavy cupboard. We powered through the jobs in about 30 minutes so with time to spare we asked for some more work and helped to clean the children's leaf shaped benches and stools plus a bigger bench. It made a big difference and we hope to return for some painting / varnishing if the school need us again. Well done everyone!

This was Isha's and Christine's first GoodGym task so welcome both and hope you enjoyed it!

All five GoodGymmers made their way to today’s task under their own steam. Juli, Jess, and first‑timer Pammi walked over together from the community centre, Angela arrived by bike, and Ed took a meandering route via a few extra churches before joining us at St Luke’s.

At the church we were greeted by task owner Jaqueline, who revealed our challenge: mountains of pruned branches and brush. Suspiciously familiar mountains. Possibly the very same ones we proudly created on previous visits. Apparently the universe (and Jaqueline) had decided it was time for us to tidy up after ourselves.

The mission: break it all down, bag it all up, and prepare it for its glamorous final journey to the dump.

The team got stuck in immediately; snapping, stuffing, chatting, and generally turning chaos into neatly filled black sacks. The weather behaved, the daylight was kind, and the piles shrank with satisfying speed. Juli and Angela even discovered a couple of froggy supervisors, who hopped out of the way as we dismantled their hiding place.

After an hour of industrious bag‑filling, we stood back to admire our handiwork; 31 bags packed, stacked, and ready for their ride to rubbish heaven.

We always love a visit to St Luke’s, and something tells us we’ll be back soon; to finish the job, tackle new odd‑jobs, or maybe just check in on our froggy friends.
