Table transformation

Wednesday 2nd April

Written by Jade

The team at The Open table were down in volunteers so cheered when I arrived to set up. After changing it up a bit and assembling the space slightly differently I was on my way for another day.

Soil mates!

Sunday 6th April

Written by Caroline Helder

This was our first session helping Martin Way Methodist Church with their garden project and we had a lovely afternoon for it. Our host Abby showed me some pictures of how far it's come, from a neglected wilderness to an attractive community garden area, but there's still plenty to do in terms of digging, planting, pruning and erecting a greenhouse. We rolled up our sleeves to give one of the benches a fresh coat of oil and to cut back the overgrown laurel tree. A warm welcome to new Merton GoodGym member Steve who joined for his initial task – hopefully the first of many.

Wednesday 26th February

Written by Jade

2 Goodgymers rolled up their sleeves to help clean up after today's Open Table lunch session. We tackled many dishes, sudsing our way through plates and cutlery whilst in between loads, discretely clearing tables.

We hope to support The Open Table from time to time so do join us if you can.

Shelf improvement the Goodgym way

Monday 24th February

Written by Jade

For our second group run, our dedicated band of volunteers descended on Martin Way Methodist Church ready to banish grime and spring clean the kitchen!

We tackled the cupboards and fridges with cloths and a selection of cleaning products, plus some rather funky black plastic gloves that someone brought along.

From sticky shelves to dusty corners we meticulously cleaned, organised and returned the contents to their rightful places. Hopefully the various groups that share the space will have us back and we can work on the island and the crockery.
