8 Goodgymers joined ABCD-IN-LUTON and the Friends of Leagrave Park on their monthly litterpick. As ever there were some weird and wonderful finds amongst the 17 bags of rubbish that we all collected. Well done to everyone that took part

This week we ran and walked to Holy Trinity Church to give the porch a good cleaning. We brushed out the spider webs, cleaned the windows, cleaned and polished all the woodwork too.

As well as that we started preparing for a painting job on an interior wall that has peeling paint as a result of an old roof leak. We gave the loose paint a good scraping to get it off the wall. We made a good start but it definitely needs another go before it can be painted. we spent as long clearing up our mess as we did making it! We'll be back for another go.

We descended in All Saints like a dusting SWAT team according to one of the church wardens. Arriving at 2pm we had just an hour and a half to sweep the hall and get the tables and chairs out and take down flags left over from a previous celebration. And then it was on to cleaning, dusting and sweeping the main church. And proving that GoodGymers don't mess about we had all the jobs on the list ticked off in record time. The church was transformed and ready for Fr David's farewell service and celebration. It was lovely to catch up with Pam (one of our GoodGym tribe who has moved away) and to see GoodGym friends Richard from Club 61, Rev Grace from Hockwell Community, Sanjeev from the Gurudwara who all commented on how helpful Goodgym has been to them. So well done to the team today, but to all of the Luton Goodgymers who gave helped in so many projects across the town.
