6 of Luton's Goodgymers took part in the last of the BIG January tidy up weeks. An extra push to keep our communities clean and tidy as part of the Goodgym January challenge. Whether it's nipping out on your lunch break or litterpicking before a Goodgym group run, this month has seen our Goodgymers go above and beyond keeping Britain tidy. We'll done to everyone who's taken part. Great job team 👏

Week 4 of The BIG January tidy up and 4 of the Luton faithful are still happy to brave the elements to keep their communities looking immaculate. This week seeing a part of Hightown getting the once over, Wardown Park having a pre parkrun tidy up and the area around Holy Trinity Church ⛪️ being cleared of 6 bags worth of rubbish. Really good effort this week team. Well done 👏

Well it wasn't one and it wasn't a million but it certainly felt like it.

There were actually 4 GoodGymers who attended the January Jobs Fair in the Mall, and little did we know as we helped with the set up just how popular the event would be. Staged in the centre of Luton Point, Omar, Gill and Ali helped the employers to set up their stalls with tables, chairs and banners. And then were were stationed by the entrance to the cordoned off area to support people registering their details and completing the online attendance form. Before we knew it there was a huge crowd of job seekers all keen to talk with the representatives from various NHS and care sector departments. We were expecting to see about 100 to 200 hundred people, but the queues kept on growing and it felt like there were a million. It was just over a thousand in fact (but always room for poetic license). Derya had to finish the task early and handed the iPad back to Omar who did a stirling job of gate keeping. Ali was as enthusiastic as ever as he supported Matt with all sorts of tasks and helped to managed the registrations. Gill helped people with their enquiries and was also on hand with a QR code supporting people to fill out registrations on their smart phones. Its was a long morning, and definitely a physical task as we were on our feet constantly. Matt form LBC was effusive with his praise for GoodGym as he said he didn't know how they would have managed without us. "You're all one in a million!" were his parting words.

6 Luton Goodgymers took on week 3 of the BIG January tidy up, completing at least 30 minutes of litterpicking alongside exercising. Whether it was running, jogging or walking the result is the same, we're doing good and getting fit. Well done to everyone who took part Great job team
