Saturday social vibes
What a wonderful turn out on a sunny afternoon to support the Care for Veterans summer fayre. There were 13 of us including Jemima who came along in her GG t-shirt with mum Tamsin to help us too - If only there was a junior GG Jemmie would be there every week!
it was lovely to see Natacha again and we are looking forward to welcoming a GG baby boy in 3 months time :)
There was a guest appearance from Nick who brought some muscle along to compliment Johns!
Belinda, Sue Daisy and Anne together with Roxy and Paula all pulled out all the energy meaning that we managed to be cleared up within 1 hour. Myra was delighted and let us choose a drink whilst Jemmie oped for sweet treats ( lots of them! )
And so to the pub
We all headed to the pub to celebrate Belinda 300th good deed that she achieved last week. John had made an amazing GoodGym Gulliver in celebration and had also managed to keep it a secret from her too. Congratulation and thank you to Belinda Kudos to John too !!
It was a really nice way to spend a late afternoon. Roxy has requested a picnic next time!

Today a group of six GoodGymers headed to Care for Veterans to help them pack away after their fundraising Christmas Fayre. Our efforts were hugely appreciated. What we were told would usually take their volunteers around four hours to do was achieved in just over an hour of joint hefting and shifting.
We can expect to be called in again to help with their summer edition!
Also, they had a request. Next year it will be 80 years since D-Day. Care for Veterans would love to have 80 people running on their behalf at the Worthing 10k on the 9th June - including teams of volunteers to push wheelchair veterans. Go on, you know you want to....
