Camden Report written by Alex Murtough (he/him)
Our new mascot is a web developer.
They're a true expert in ICT (insects - caterpillars - (and) - termites).
They have promised us they will spread the GoodGym word in apartments, flats, and houses across Camden. Apparently they can get into any building.
Whilst they are neither a vegan nor a vegetarian, they (reluctantly) respect others ways of life. Unless you are an insect, caterpillar, or termite.
We will call them Camden. Camden the Big-Fluffy-MaybeScary-Super-Spider.
Our rendezvous and meet-and-great with Camden (The Big Fluffy Spider) filled the final minutes of our time at the Caversham's Listening Space Garden, amidst a darkening and (orange) moon shaped sky.
We started in our usual haunt by the Crick this evening. Caitlin, Gosia, Jackie, Steve, and I started with chatter before attempting the count-to-25 warm-up game. We didn't quite make it to 25. This irked Camden (The Big Fluffy Spider). Every successful spider - apparently - can count to 25 (flies).
Our smaller group tracked a sun-bound evening route through Camden to the Caversham, where we were met by GG Camden regular, Sarah, and GG Camden newcomers, Alfie, Anton, and Nivia (you're very welcome, all!!)
Guided by the Caversham's brill social prescriber, Jackie, we got tucked into 40 minutes of scraping, pulling, and removing summer weeds. Heads down under our encroaching evening, we each got to know someone a little better.
Thank you, all, folks (including you, Camden) for this evening - you made a huge and visible difference to this space, which is used so much by the local community - thank you :)
Here's to next time!

Camden Report written by Alex Murtough (he/him)
We explored a special (and new) space for us this week.
Tucked in the shadows of Kentish Town City Farm, Cressfield Close Sheltered Housing is a private haven for its residents.
There's a peace and a quiet in this space, and this tranquility was a welcome calm for our group as we arrived in red on Wednesday.
Met by the super-experienced Cathi, our wonderful group of Alex T, Jackie, Sarah, and Steve swiftly split into groups to tackle overgrown weeds, grasses, and foliage in the residents' private gardens.
Sarah joined Cathi, and they transformed a space across 45 minutes, pulling weeds, scraping moss, and bringing tidiness to the garden!
Alex and Steve went to battle with a hedge that had started to consume a garden - and their work returned the overbearing mass to orderly beauty!
And Jackie and I got to stripping back long grasses and brambles, filling a refuse liner before agreeing to come back soon with more hands and tools!
Thank you, all, for your work and efforts - I really appreciate it :)
To next time!!
