GoodGym Nottingham took to the streets of Sneinton this week to help local community organisation, IMPACD CIC. IMPACD runs inclusive movement, participatory arts, and community dance sessions and they needed help spreading the word to the local residents.

We split into two groups on arrival and set about posting flyers into letter boxes, covering a surprising number of roads and houses in the vicinity (and spotting a surprising number of cats!). After an hour, we walked back to the Greenway Centre (where IMPACD are based) to debrief and discuss how many more tasks we’ll have before we lose the light evenings (head torches are ready!). Next week should still be light - why not sign up here and join us!

We welcomed new volunteer, Tim, to his first GoodGym session and Sian to her second. They were joined by Nigel, Peter, Leah and Rachel.

It was another Sunday morning in hi-viz for three GoodGymers helping out at Forest Rec Junior parkrun. And we were much needed as 111 youngsters ran and walked to the finish boosted by a takeover from Haydn Primary School. Task Force members Leah and Rachel were also spotted trying to keep up with their respective young ones!

Marshalling around the 2km course were Elspeth and Tracey (who had crossed the border from GG Derby - was great to see you!) whilst Peter was given the responsibility of barcode scanning.

All passed off incident free and volunteer and GoodGym credits awarded
