Report written by Yianny (he / him)
Where has the time gone..... It's the last Group Run of 2021 - GoodGym fun - there's no sun - now the year is done. ๐คฉ
Last night got me feeling poetic as 12 Lambeth Legends met at Papa's Park for the last hurrah of the year and a "classic" GoodGym autumn/winter task of clearing leaves at Brixton Road Youth Centre. ๐
The group were ably led out by Tim who has been a great support while the Area Activator is on the inactive(ator) list and great back marking from Aislin. ๐ฏ Thanks also to Nathan for the photos.
On arrival it was almost as if there weren't that many leaves on the ground to be cleared but the BRYCC team quickly pointed out the piles that had accumulated (or were swept there previously by GG'mers!) along the sides of the centre. The team set about doing what it does and 30 or so minutes later there were 30 full bags of leaves to be disposed of. It was back to base in no time at all for a quick warm down and a chance to admire the AA's stunning Rainbow Laces (click the link to pick up a pair for yourself) before heading to Canova Hall for a festive drink and a chat. โจ
The group took their seats right in front of the kitchen with the pizza oven warming us like a log fire and it was great to get to know people a bit better before Yianny went full geek grabbed his notebook and pen and asked for some suggestions and ideas for the Lambeth Community in 2022. Lots of great ideas were put forward and plenty to go away and work on so watch this space!! โ
A huge thank you to all the runners, Task Force members, Mission and Taskers for their great work this year - wishing everyone a great end to the year - and a happy and prosperous 2022. ๐
The youth centre provides a space for young people to hang out, play games and socialise.
