7 wonderful GoodGym folk made light work of a balcony clear-out!
Tottenham Court Road hummed its usual bustle as our group – of Helen, Jackie, Lydia, Siobhan, and Steve – climbed through the American International Church's magnificent doors.
We were there to meet the AIC's brilliant community engagement aficionado – and fellow GoodGymer – Brooke, who had a perfectly-shaped task for GoodGym!
The balcony is suspended above the church hall and it's filled with the usual – pews, books, community notices – as well as the less usual – an eclectic assortment of chairs, random poles, fun-looking toys, and more!
We were there to move the excess items down the three flights to the basement, across the church's underbelly, and out to the side entrance ready for collection and recycling!
Cue this team kicking into the most efficient (and happy) human chain I've ever witnessed – they picked, carried, passed, and repeated – onlookers marveled, removal companies trembled, and the loot was moved and tidily organised in 45 swift minutes!
Thank you so much, everyone! Here's to next time!

7 GoodGymers made a meaningful difference in Camden this week!
This lovely group headed to one of our usual haunts – Lismore Circus Community Woods in Gospel Oak – and we got busy with pruning, litter picking, hedge trimming, and more!
The photos tell a happy story – 60 minutes in nature with friends – and all while making a meaningful difference in Camden :)
Here's to next time!!

10 wonderful GoodGym folk made a green-fingered difference in Kentish Town!
Five of us – Alex, Danny, John, Matt, and Steve – started out from Somers Town yesterday evening.
Matt ran from Battersea Park – John sprinted from Euston Station – Danny ran down from Kentish Town – and Steve wove his usual route up from Bloomsbury!
Together we followed a steady route towards Willingham Terrace (situated in a very hot Kentish Town) and met five others – Alison, Caitlin, Helen, Lydia, and Sarah – each of whom made their own journeys (on foot and bike) to our good-deeding venue.
Hilda has lived on this estate for decades and she's transformed the green spaces – there's a bountiful allotment that was once a verge – and it's all thanks to Hilda's perseverance and creativity.
Yesterday was our second visit and we were focused once again on the communal square's hedgerow.
Weeds were pulled – grass edges were established – and four great big bags of cuttings were collected and disposed.
The difference was huge – and all under an overbearing July sun!
Thank you, everyone!! See you next time!!
