The second week of January and GoodGymers were collecting up empty sweet tubs form around the town to deliver to the Greene King Pubs for their Tub2Pub campaign.

On Tuesday, Gill took empty Heroes and Celebrations tubs to the Ewe and Lambs on her way to a trial visit for a social mission after collecting them from a colleague at work. At the same time Ella had retrieved a tub from her in-laws and popped it in to the bar at The Jolly Topers. On Wednesday Martin visited his Dad, who had managed to polish of a tub of Heroes over the Christmas period (ably assisted, we are sure, by his family), so he kindly offered to take Dad’s tub to the Biscot Mill and deposit it in the collection cage there.

Saturday was a popular day for ourTub2Pub Heroes, and Laura made it up to the Biscot Mill with her Heroes tub, with Duncan following hot on her heals with Roses.

Sunday was the final day for the week 2 challenge, and the Biscot Mill must think that GoodGym eat an awful lot of chocolates. Gill had collected a stack of tubs from a friend who works in a school, and she was helped my Musa to get them all in the cage while Pam followed close behind with the final tub of the week 2 task.

Brilliant team work… saving plastics form landfill, contributing to the Greene King donation to Macmillan, and getting some steps in along the way. Well done all.

6 of our Luton Goodgymers took part in week 2 of The BIG January tidy up. 30 minutes of litterpicking or plogging helping to keep our local areas clean and tidy. Great effort everyone 👏

Tonight, 3 Goodgymers from Luton helped a local community group from the Shri Guru Ravidass Sangat temple celebrate the New Year and reflect on all their achievements from the last 12 months. This task involved setting up tables, clearing down and packing away tables and chairs and ticking off names on the door as people entered. There was music, food and drink and we were also invited to present 2 of the 4 awards that were given to some of the volunteers that work so hard to support the group with all they do in the community. Whilst Duncan and I were doing our best Max and Paddy impression, Omar was helping out in the kitchen. I think we had a positive impact on the evening and we look forward to helping them out again soon. Great work guys. We'll done

8 Goodgymers braved the park for one of the coldest Luton Wardown parkruns on record. Collectively we took on set-up, barcode scanning, tailwalking and marshalling. Good cheer, warm hearts, many, many layers.
