Tonight, the team took on a deep-cleaning mission at Merton's Community Fridge! While the physical job of removing the partition wall didn't quite make the cut due to issues with fixings, this was probably a blessing.

After being briefed by Anelisa on what to doo, we cracked through as much as possible in the time available. Fridges were shifted, heavy crates and boxes were moved, and every single nook and cranny was cleared and cleaned. With 6 Goodgymmers in such a small space it was a pretty hot work out and the challenge was getting it all back in the right place afterwards. But thanks to the commitment to getting the job done we completed the task and even had time to enjoy a drink (of water) in return for our efforts. Well done team!

True dedication at Merton's Community Fridge this afternoon! Even without anything officially scheduled in the diary, our fantastic volunteers turned up ready to work through the various clean-up jobs. Efficiently tackling tasks and they were done and dusted.

Tonight, GoodGym Kingston had a fantastic group run and session at the Full Cycle Bicycle Project! With a great turnout, we were kept busy with a whole host of new jobs and a few we are always happy to help out with:

Our tasks included:

Sorting out the loading bay and re-organising bike parts 🛠️

Reordering the upcoming servicing schedule 📅

Giving bikes a good clean ✨

Pumping up countless tyres 💨

And a general tidy-up to leave the place gleaming! 🧹

As we efficiently tackled each job, more things to do were found. We always love to support this amazing project and look forward to being back to tackle some more tasks soon.

A huge welcome to both Shammy and Amy! We hope you enjoyed your first session and will be joining us again soon for more good deeds and great company!

We hit the streets of Raynes Park today for a session of leafletting! We were supporting Age UK by helping promote their invaluable services to the community, and of course, adding a GoodGym leaflet too! This task was a brilliant chance to catch up with a fellow GoodGymer whilst walking and delivering the leaflets, enjoying some good conversation and fresh air. Afterwards, we even had time to grab a well-deserved drink and continue the chat. It's always great to combine doing good with a bit of social time!

A fantastic turnout for an early evening session saw volunteers from both Kingston and Merton team up with Danni at Jubilee Square. We efficiently tackled the task of removing the bunting, working in pairs with ladders and steps to carefully take down each section. It was a little windy but we worked as quickly as possible carefully wrapping the lengths of bunting to be saved for another day. Another successful community mission accomplished!
