7 wonderful GoodGym folk made light work of a balcony clear-out!
Tottenham Court Road hummed its usual bustle as our group – of Helen, Jackie, Lydia, Siobhan, and Steve – climbed through the American International Church's magnificent doors.
We were there to meet the AIC's brilliant community engagement aficionado – and fellow GoodGymer – Brooke, who had a perfectly-shaped task for GoodGym!
The balcony is suspended above the church hall and it's filled with the usual – pews, books, community notices – as well as the less usual – an eclectic assortment of chairs, random poles, fun-looking toys, and more!
We were there to move the excess items down the three flights to the basement, across the church's underbelly, and out to the side entrance ready for collection and recycling!
Cue this team kicking into the most efficient (and happy) human chain I've ever witnessed – they picked, carried, passed, and repeated – onlookers marveled, removal companies trembled, and the loot was moved and tidily organised in 45 swift minutes!
Thank you so much, everyone! Here's to next time!

•••4 Wonderful GoodGym folk gave a community flower bed a makeover in Camden!***
Camden Square Gardens is a special patch of community space a little East from Camden Town. Surrounded by community dwellings, sections of this green space are cared for by the local community.
Jackie, John, Siobhan, and I met the wonderful Annabel, who guided us to a patch with potential! Open and large, the hope is that this space will soon be filled with shrubs and flowers, and our work involved helping prepare this space for planting.
Over 60 minutes, our special group dug and forked, getting deep into the soil to attack the roots of invasive weeds and thistles.
Four of us meant four hours of work, and we collected a healthy pile of natural waste together :)
Thank you, everyone! See you next time!

7 GoodGymers made a meaningful difference in Camden this week!
This lovely group headed to one of our usual haunts – Lismore Circus Community Woods in Gospel Oak – and we got busy with pruning, litter picking, hedge trimming, and more!
The photos tell a happy story – 60 minutes in nature with friends – and all while making a meaningful difference in Camden :)
