A commonwealth of fun!
Sunday 19th June 2022

Two goodgymers helped out today at this fun day to celebrate the commonwealth games.
It was a great day with plenty of activities for kids - we helped set up the activities and even got to take part in some events like the sack race and tug of war!
The kids had loads of fun and was really nice to be a part of this!
It's Brightening Up!

On a very wet and windy Saturday morning, 4 hardy GoodGymers braved the conditions to help out at Birmingham Settlement. After a brief introduction from Stuart about the history of the site and what the future plans are, we got to work. Ryan and Becky started with the tricky task of clearing a pile of brambles and cuttings, while Louise and myself got stuck in the mud, moving a big pile of soil upto the main building to be used as material for planting beds.
Despite the rather grim conditions, spirit's remained high and everyone done a cracking job! It was a double whammy too, after all of us had originally helped volunteer at Parkrun just before.
Great work all! Looking forward to going back when the weather is slightly better!
