Lucy is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Islington Report written by Paul Bown
19 GGers met on the 19th March in not 19 degrees to help Caxton House
Thank you all for coming on the last Monday of winter (I really hope), it's great to be surrounded by such brave souls in doing good in Islington. Welcome along to Lucy whose first time it was yesterday - lovely to have you along.
In the news this week:
- Please be aware that on Monday 2nd, 9th and 23rd April we will be meeting at the Arc Centre down by the canal as the Arsenal Hub is either closed for Easter or there is a football game on.
- There is GG Monthly Drinks on Thursday 5th April - it'll be in central and it'll be lots of fun!
- Well done to Alex Coyle for hitting 50 Good Deeds last night - black t-shirt on it's way!
After a warm up we headed north via Hornsey Road and the backstreets to Caxton House, this has been a regular task over the years for us and it's a brilliant one!
Caxton House Community Centre describes itself as "local community hub based in Islington, we offer a number of education, fitness and arts projects; and provide a key link between like-minded organisations and the local community."
Upon meeting Rose she told us our tasks for the evening:
- Trimming and cutting back an area of bushes and trees at the back.
- Clearing and de-weeding the cracks between the pavement so they can be sanded.
- Clearing away brambles and ivy at the front
Armed with an array of tools we got to work doing some GOOD work. In between our tasks we did high knees and some star-jumps to keep us warm in sub-zero temperatures.
Banana Bread!
On our way home we leafleted the area for Caxton House and Green Gym, promoting local volunteering and activities for the community to get involved in.
Social time! We headed to the pub for our monthly social, taking all the koala veggie burger stock on offer (excluding Aidan's that is...). Kike had made some lovely banana bread - which didn't contain nuts and therefore Alix didn't get poisoned. Good news all round!
Sign up here for next week, we are helping St Lukes and Ramsey Flowers Group with some SPRING gardening.
PB out.
