Hammersmith and Fulham Report written by Polly Skeats-Beswick
It started out with a task briefing in the fitness centre. This night we’d be delivering flyers for Wand UK again. Wand is a fantastic charity that provides support for vulnerable and isolated women in the communities. Their services include mental health and wellbeing support, computer and English classes, advice with domestic abuse and parenting. They have also put on an extra project called ‘Holding Hands’ to help those affected by the Grenfell disaster - providing free emotional welling and holistic support, tai chi & yoga classes and massages.
After a warm-up we set off together toward Norland Open Space. There, the group was split into two (gender balanced ;) teams. Then armed with maps and new highlighters, they set off to deliver the flyers in different areas - one lead by Polly and the other by Jason.
They navigated successfully and did a speedy job, meaning we could all meet back at the park at 8 for a core workout.
Our fitness session was a was like a game duck duck goose with a detour. The group did a series of core exercises whilst one member race out to a tree across the park and back. This made the timing different for each exercise. Star jumps, burpees, legs raises and more.
Once everyone had a run out to the tree we wrapped up and headed back home whilst discussing the best local park runs.
Congrats to Esther for making it along to her first Goodgym run. Give her a Cheer!
Next week is our 1st birthday! Join us for celebrations.
