Seven socially-distanced GoodGymmers turned up at Landor Road to meet with the aptly named Incredible Edibles and the equally incredible Landor Road Gardens. They have been working with doctors' surgeries in the area to help promote wellness in the local communities but, in these crazy Covid-19 times, wanted to flip that on its head – with local communities providing wellness to the doctors' surgeries.

To do this, they had created beautiful bunches of flowers for us to deliver to five surgeries as a way of bringing joy and showing thanks to each. They also had a smudge for us to deliver (which we all learned was a bunch of dried herbs that you burn to help cleanse and bring good energy!).

Armed with cards, flowers and a smudge, each pair gently jogged their deliveries across Lambeth – receiving smiles, smudge-induced confusion and even requests for songs (which John tunefully obliged!) from all the surgeries.

A lovely colourful mission for such a great cause and we can't wait to do it again soon!
