GoodGym Wandsworth's goal is to be able to support our community in the best and most productive way possible, so when we had a last minute call from one of regular task owners asking for some urgent help, we were only too happy to switch up our planned task to lend a hand.

Hadas who runs Waste Not Want Not, a local charity which is dedicated to ensuring that perfectly edible and nutritious food does not become waste and instead is channelled for the benefit of our local community, is managing a big refurb of the site. The decorator is ready to come and give the place a facelift, but there were two massive spaces which needed clearing out before that can happen. That's where we come in!

After a short run down to the charity, we assessed the job in question. How to move two rooms full of equipment, food and stock into one room with limited space? Human chain, of course. Wasting no time, we got cracking shifting everything through the building and working out the best way to store it. Meanwhile, another group tackled the conundrum that is the WNWN shelves. After one false start where it turns out they were assembled upside down, they were soon successful.

After 40 minutes the place was emptied and ready for its new look. We'll be back soon to see how it's all changed!

Next we headed over to Banana Park for our fitness session, which involved one pack of cards, two teams and A LOT of power squats. There could only be one winner however, and with a final score of 11 versus 14 the victors were clear.

Next week we have a very exciting session as it is our 7th birthday. Please join us if you can for an evening of fun, mini tasks, orienteering, challenges and of course a post run social. It would be brilliant to celebrate GG Wandsworth past, present and future with you!
