Drop shed gorgeous

Newham Report written by Sharon

We welcomed Ibrahim to his first visit to GG Newham.

Graham led the group from the Aquatics Centre (yes back at our original base)

Kevin and I headed there from home with a gentle run through West Ham Park.

Elaine and Sybil greeted us and showed us to the allotment plot that needed a very large old shed dismantling ready for collection. It is hoped that the plot will then be let out to a new resident.

We started with clearing some debris from inside the shed before it was attacked with a sledgehammer,with a final group push the shed was flattened.

Elaine and Sybil had laid on some wonderful refreshments.

We said our good byes and headed into the sunset.

We will see Sybil next week at Emmaunel Church.....so will be more post task refreshments sign up here

Dustin time for Easter

Newham Report written by Sharon

A return to an evening task st Emmanuel Church.

This week Sybil had asked if it would be possible for us to give the church a spring clean ready for their Easter services.

A received a very warm welcome from Sybil who then led us into the church.

Brooms,feather dusters and clothes at the ready we split into groups and proceeded to dust and remove as many cobwebs as possible.

Kevin was in charge of ladder holding while Adam gave the ceiling a brush.

Graham and Brad with the help from one of the church wardens fashioned an extra long brush to reach the cobwebs above the arches.

A quick refuel thanks to the wonderful lady wardens who had made us cheese on toast in addition to tea and coffee and fruit,we also finished off my birthday cake. Refueled we made a final push to get the final webs before we said our goodbyes not before Sybil made sure we had some fruit for when we got home.

We wooden have it any other way.

Newham Report written by Sharon

Kevin and I ran to the Adventure Playground via the Olympic Park.

Tim had walked from Stratford via the River Lea

Hilary was leading the running from the Print House.

Ange met us at the gate,she had a very busy day with over 100 children having spent time enjoying all the playground has to offer.The have a trip on a canal barge coming up which sounds like great fun.

Tonights task was to restack a pile of wood as it had been left with nails sticking out and quite precarious.

Some of the small pieces will be uses for the fire pit and pizza oven.

Wood restacked we went to have a look at the tadpoles in the newly built pond. The pond is part of a project to have a pathway of small ponds along the Lea Valley to increase amphibians.

We said our goodbyes and headed home.

Next week we are heading to see Sybil at Emmanuel Church

I Wanna Dig With Somebody

Newham Report written by Hilary (she/her)

Last night, GoodGym Newham took on another epic task—this time at Hackney Marshes Adventure Playground, where we helped dig out soil to create an access area for some new planters (at least, we think so… it was a bit dark to be sure!).

Most of us enjoyed a scenic run up the River Lea, while Martin met us there, ready to get stuck in. As we shoveled away, we were treated to some Whitney Houston belters, which naturally led to a chat about our favourite karaoke songs.

Among the classics mentioned*:

  • I Wanna Dance With Somebody
  • I Believe in a Thing Called Love
  • Daydream Believer
  • Smooth Operator
  • Wannabe
  • And the intriguing choice of "Anything Instrumental"...

A huge well done to everyone who took part! Next week, we’re back at Care4Calais—see you there for another feel-good mission! 💪🔥

*With apologies if I (very likely) mis-remembered any of these - more than happy to edit in the interests of accuracy!
