In just one hour, the GoodGym Bexley team made a huge difference to the area by Co-op Blackfen! Armed with litter pickers, bin bags, and plenty of enthusiasm, we got stuck in—and wow, did we find some surprises.

Among the usual rubbish, we picked up:

👞 A pair of shoes – someone must have walked home barefoot!
🍳 A frying pan – maybe breakfast on the go?
☕ A coffee machine – a bit big for a takeaway coffee!
🌂 Umbrellas – useful, but not when left in the street.
🚗 An exhaust pipe – not something you expect to find while litter picking!

By the end of the session, the whole area looked so much tidier. Hopefully, now it’s clean, people will think twice before dropping more rubbish!

A big thank you to everyone who helped – you’re all brilliant. And most importantly…

Happy 8th Birthday, GoodGym Bexley! Here’s to another year of getting active, doing good, and making a difference.
