How many GoodGymers does it take to build an Ikea kitchen?!

Moving, rearranging, building kitchens, hanging doors, litter picking with tongs, running, star gazing, cookies, hot chocolate, hot water bottles down tops, falling over, star gazing & the cold.

Of all the random GoodGym nights, tonight was probably the most random. There were a lot of us in a very confined space at Bedford Fields as the ground was too frozen to do anything outside. We hung a door, started to build a kitchen and rearranged furniture.

Thanks to the none runners for staying behind to do more on the kitchen.

Congratulations to Helen on her 170th good deed! You're amazing.

In what could possibly be GoodGym Huddersfield's final good deed we made the path to enlightenment, or perhaps more accurately the path to Cliffe Ash in Golcar. Building on the efforts from our previous visit, we barrowed stone chips up the cobble hill to spread and then compact down to restore the path through the community woods for local people to use.

Thanks to today's GoodGymmers, Kati Law, Ben Godfrey, Louise Galvin, Zoe Lockwood and Jason for their efforts. Thanks also to Matt and Christine from Golcar Environment group for the task.....and as importantly the very fine carrot cake.

Festive jokes & crafts were enough to get us into the (very early) Christmas spirit tonight!! The group met at Heart & our resident run leader, Helen took the group on a 4.5K run. We then headed back to the cafe at Heart, got a drink & got to work for a CAMHS Christmas craft project. We were cutting up Christmas wrapping paper & writing Christmas jokes on the back, so that the children and young people in the CAMHS units can make them into paper chains. This was a lovely task & we managed to make a respectable 200 of the strips, which will all be heading to Bath where they will distribute them across the country.

Jason helpfully came up with the pun tonight, although we amended it slightly :) :)

Welcome to Emily on her first session with GoodGym Leeds. We hope to see you again soon.
