Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
On a slightly rainy Monday evening, Area Activator Simon met with early Goodgym arrival Steph Ducat at The ARC Centre, Islington. Stephane told me that he had passed through the area for another mission just the other day, and was happy to join us for our riverside plogging session that evening. As the rest of our crew gathered up, we took our our hardy gloves, litter pickers, head torches and bin bags ready for our brisk walk, along with small bags of bird seed for feeding the local water fowl on Regent's Canal. The birds have had a hard time recently, especially with the icy conditions and frozen water!
Within 50 minutes, we had walked together through the Riverside Gardens (on the Packington Estate) and along the canal side to De Beauvoir, Shoreditch, collecting loads of rubbish and debris on route. Almost 7 full bags of rubbish had been gathered from the parks and the towpath. Well done everyone!

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
The Goodgym Islington crew avoided some wet and windy weather again on Monday evening, before heading to Caledonian Park to help Gail and Miriam and the local volunteer team. Area Activator Simon ran with Caitlin and Damarcus up and along Mackenzie Road and towards a firework display firing off in the distance (a gender reveal party in Cally Park, apparently?).
Upon our arrival, the crew gathered wheelbarrows and shovels ready to assist with winter path building. Over a ton of fine ground sand has been donated to the park by a builder's merchant, and our objective was transport the material over towards the nature walk and amphitheatre section of the park. This is a popular wooded trail for walkers and runners, which unfortunately gets quite water logged during the winter months.
Together, we successfully pushed 10 wheelbarrow loads of heavy material across the whole of Cally Park, and made a great start on this big task. We kept a system running to allow half of our team wheelbarrowing and the rest of our crew raking and shovelling. Well done everyone!
Our plan is to return next week- see you at the Cally Clocktower at 7.15pm next Monday!

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
After a day of changeable Autumn weather, Area Activator Simon was happy to catch up with a top crew of Goodgym Islington runners after the Bank Holiday Weekend. Together, we enjoyed a pleasant run down Sobell Road, and over to a hidden community plot by Isledon Gardens (maintained by local volunteers Mary and Richard).
Local legend Eslam also cycled over to see us, bringing along a cargo bike full of tools. Spades, forks and even the odd pick-axe!
Our plans for the evening were three fold:
We helped with digging a trench along an already established wood chip path (both sides, approx 8 inches deep). The objective is to plant new supports along the route to maintain its integrity (especially during wet winter months)
After the digging task, we were directed to an alleyway across the road from the gardens. We paired up to safely transport 16 railway sleepers into the gardens. These had been left in place since for many years, but we did a smashing job of preparing them for future projects
Finally, we used our last 10 minutes or so to gather up green waste from around the gardens, and to add it to th compost bins. Using shovels and jutes coffee sacks helped to make short work of our last task!
The volunteer gardening team were thrilled with the amount of progress we had made in just under an hour, especially between a team of 8 keen Goodgymmers!. Well done everyone!
