10 GoodGymers turned out for the most autumnal of all autumnal tasks AND Emily hit 200 good deeds!
This special group – Alex, Danny, Emily, Helen, Jackie, John, Kareem, Siobhan, and Steve – donned head torches and gloves and grabbed rakes and brooms in our first properly dark task of the season!
Our home for the evening was Cecil Sharp House, which is itself home to the biggest and best trees in all of Camden...
... which does mean there are plenty of leaves!
Cue 10 GoodGymers meticulously collecting bag upon bag upon bag of falling autumn :)
And amidst all of this effort we were celebrating a very special milestone yesterday evening: Emily – who frequents Camden, Islington, and other GG areas – hit a whopping 200 good deeds! A huge well done and thank you, Emily!
We will back to Cecil Sharp every 3 weeks during the leaf-falling season, and I'm already looking forward to the next session :)
Thank you, everyone!

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

5 GoodGymers planted herbs – and herbs – and herbs – and... more herbs!
There is a very special community non-profit called Think and Do Camden, and they have pioneered a lovely nature-bound project over the past 18 months.
Their bee-line boxes are sustainable, hardy, and ethically-sourced herb planters that attach to balconies.
This past week they've partnered with their third Camden estate (in Holborn) and we were there to fill the planters with all the right herbs!
This special group – Danny, Imogen, Majid, and Olga – spent two hours amidst mint, marjoram, oregano, rosemary, and thyme, and they planted tens upon tens of freshly affixed planters :)
It was a joy to see the balconies spring to green life, and everyone made a truly meaningful and material difference – thank you, everyone!!

In mid-August heat 10 wonderful GoodGymers caught a lovely evening in Kentish Town!
Cressfield Close is an unassuming cul-de-sac — houses and quiet — and yet hiding special community spaces!
There's the city farm — with goats and guinea pigs and sheep and more — and there's also the sheltered housing, which was our home for the evening :)
This lovely group — Alex, Alison, Claire (on their first Camden good deed – great to meet you!), Danny, Jackie, Jessica (on their first good deed — welcome!), John, Lydia, and Steve — were welcomed by residents Marie and Michael, and we got quickly to our evening work.
The communal garden is a bountiful space (fruits, vegetables, and flowers aplenty) and we were tasked with targeting the thistles and weeds that have sprung over the summer.
Armed with trowels and forks, this group donned gloves and made light work of everything — and all while connecting and sharing stories :)
Thank you, everyone! See you soon!!

10 wonderful GoodGym folk made a green-fingered difference in Kentish Town!
Five of us – Alex, Danny, John, Matt, and Steve – started out from Somers Town yesterday evening.
Matt ran from Battersea Park – John sprinted from Euston Station – Danny ran down from Kentish Town – and Steve wove his usual route up from Bloomsbury!
Together we followed a steady route towards Willingham Terrace (situated in a very hot Kentish Town) and met five others – Alison, Caitlin, Helen, Lydia, and Sarah – each of whom made their own journeys (on foot and bike) to our good-deeding venue.
Hilda has lived on this estate for decades and she's transformed the green spaces – there's a bountiful allotment that was once a verge – and it's all thanks to Hilda's perseverance and creativity.
Yesterday was our second visit and we were focused once again on the communal square's hedgerow.
Weeds were pulled – grass edges were established – and four great big bags of cuttings were collected and disposed.
The difference was huge – and all under an overbearing July sun!
Thank you, everyone!! See you next time!!
