This GoodGymer swapped Croydon for the coast and volunteered at Great Yarmouth North Beach parkrun. Sand underfoot, sea alongside us and waves to dodge made this one to remember!

But wherever parkrun takes place, one thing stays the same: it needs volunteers. So whether you're at home or on your travels, get your name on a volunteer roster and help keep the parkrun magic going!

GoodGymers joined the brilliant core team at Vauxhall Gardens Foodbank, helping to serve and support the local community. With over 100 customers coming through, it was another busy session and a real team effort.

Distribution runs from 12 noon to 3pm, and it’s a huge job, so we ideally need volunteers who can stay for the whole session. If you’re free on one of the upcoming days, or have flexible working and can spare a few hours, your help would be very much appreciated.

Every extra pair of GoodGym hands really does make a difference.

Friday morning session at Vauxhall Gardens Community Centre saw us prepare food generously donated by City Harvest and the Felix Project on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, which we organised for a midday collection. With over 90 people expecting to use Vauxhall Gardens Community Centre food bank service, we needed to ensure we had enough food to give out - preparing fruits, vegetables, bread, pastries, snacks and canned foods.
