And that's a wrap for 2018!
9 GoodGymers made their way to help their local community in Ealing.

For the last community mission of 2018, nine runners came together to help people with their Christmas wrapping, all while collecting money for the Rainbow Trust.
Upon arrival we met with the centre management who gave us the space, which was right next to Santa's Grotto in the heart of the Ealing Broadway shopping centre! Even Olivia and Remy queued up to meet the big guy! We took our places to either wrap or walk around encouraging people over to the stool to get their Christmas presents wrapped - we had some great gifts to wrap, including dog treats for a VERY excited little girl to give her puppy. Karen from Wandsworth and our very own Georgia were brilliant at getting out amongst the shoppers to get them over to the wrapping team and also donate!
A special shout out and huge THANK YOU to local business, Snappy Snaps who very kindly supported us by printing our signs, which was a big help for explaining what we were doing to passers by.
We spent just over two hours spreading Christmas cheer and awareness for an amazing charity that support the relatives of terminally ill children. It was a lovely way to cap of a year of GoodGym deeds and we are all excited to do some more in 2019!
