Lambeth Report written by Katie Welford
GoodGym Lambeth took part in the 2017 Lambeth Country Show as point 6 of the inaugural Health Trail. People were encouraged to visit 7 points on the map around the show and get a stamp at each point. Each point had a different theme and gave information about health and wellbeing initiatives in Lambeth.
We were in the ACTIVATE zone and the first disappointment was that the 'Tom Daley inflatable' involved sticking kids in velcro suits to a big velcro wall and not -as first hoped - in fact a giant inflatable of Tom Daley in his swimming pants. Oh well...
Interpid explorers came to visit us over the weekend and enjoyed our mini task - a run around the bins and folding some leaflets for Age UK Lambeth. NICE!
Aside from that, the real heroes of the show were the political veg carving competition and dog n duck man. Some people liked the sheep show. We were all sad there were no owls this year.
