Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
8 top Goodgymmers met the lovely Dawn at Rose Bowl Youth Club last night. The GoodGym Islington crew had been called out to offer our assistance with garden maintenance and green fingered tasks as the darker nights draw in. Plenty of leaf sweeping in October, particularly useful for clearing up the playground for football loving youngsters! Well done everyone!

Community Cape
Anna Collier earned their community cape by completing their first community mission.
Anna completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Anna was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.

Tower Hamlets Report written by Laura Williams
And one by one our little group grew tonight, until there were no fewer than 13 GoodGymers working on the new hazel fence at the pretty St Leonard's Priory Park up in Bromley-By-Bow.
We said hello to first time GoodGym-ers Gurprit, Anton, Anna, and a warm welcome to Tower Hamlets to Anna!
Starting with four teams (one chopping hazel, one weeding, one digging fence-holes and one repairing our less-than-perfect previous hazel fence), it was definitely a case of learning on the job as we pruned, stripped and chopped; weeded and wove, blitzing multiple jobs at one time.
With the team working flexibly, rotating out of one task to another, particularly as time sped on ("Hazel! We need more hazel!"), it was a busy but sociable evening, with the countdown to sunset well and truly on.
A decent workout was had by all, whether digging up weeds or sawing tough branches.
It was after 8 before the team were generously stacking up the kit, and wheeling barrows to the back of the park.
With Kareem providing decent tech assistance, the all-important group pic remained in tact, despite the lack of light.
A great effort, everyone - and a final shout-out to Charlie, who came up with tonight's belter of a pun.
Next week
...we're back to Hollybush Gardens, for our first visit of Autumn with Margaret and Ash.
Until then.
