Nine GoodGym members recently came together to help out at the stunning Park at Stephens House & Gardens in Finchley. This place is a real gem of the area, with a rich history dating back to 1870 and a garden designed by Marnoch, a well-known Victorian garden designer.

Unfortunately, we didn't get to see much of the garden because it was pitch dark outside. But that didn't stop us from having a blast! We met Helen at one of the gates who directed us to wheelbarrows, shovels, and rakes. We then proceeded to move woodchip into a play area for children. It was a fabulous night with the moon shining bright above us - we felt like Moonrakers! (pun intended Sorry I couldn’t do better! )

After finishing up in good time, we headed back to the Phoenix Cinema for a warm down and some socializing in the upstairs café.

Join us for our next adventure and let's have some fun while doing good!"
