Eight goodgymers made their way to the Riverside family hub to remove weeds and small shrubs from the area. There was lots of tugging, cutting back and scooping of leaves. The time flew by as many hands made light work! A fun evening with lots of chatting and catching up of news. Rachel generously shared her birthday Celebration sweets to celebrate a job well done! Also well done to Jen who completed 115 skips as part of her 100 a day challenge for charity!

Tonight’s GoodGym mission in Maidenhead was a sandy one! While beach cleans aren’t exactly common around here, this one came with a twist—we weren’t cleaning the beach, we were removing it.

A couple of months ago, we helped create the pop-up beach for Norden Farm’s summer festivities. But with autumn creeping in and flip-flops firmly back in storage, it was time to bid farewell to the sandpit!

Shifting 13 tonnes of sand is no small feat—and definitely tougher than laying it out in the first place! But the GoodGym crew rose to the challenge. With teamwork, grit, and sandy socks, we helped the Norden Farm staff make a serious dent in the dunes. There’s still a bit left to tackle, but the bulk of the beach has officially been packed away.
