This week’s GoodGym adventure took us back to the wonderful team at Azalea, where we helped wrap up the festive season and give the space a fresh new feel 💫.

🎅 Core task: Packing away Christmas! Baubles were boxed, tinsel was tamed, trees torn down and fairy lights were gently untangled and stored with care. Packing away decorations always leaves a place feeling tidy and ready for the new year!

🎨 Meanwhile, we grabbed brushes and added a fresh lick of paint around the radiators where radiator guards had been removed 🖌️

📦 Down in the basement store room, we sorted, stacked, and streamlined supplies, making the space more usable and organised.

🧹 Then it was time to vacuum the carpets of the tinsel and tree debris, leaving the place looking spick and span. We might not have worn capes, but we definitely brought the sparkle ✨.

🪜 And let’s not forget the stairs, so many stairs! Our quads got a bonus workout as we zipped up and down, clocking up steps like pros 📈.

🏃‍♂️💨 With the tasks complete, we hit the town for a run around and a steps-based fitness session to really work those quads! Who needs a gym when you’ve got GoodGym?

💖 Huge thanks to Azalea for welcoming us back. We love supporting the amazing work you do. And hats off to the team for bringing energy, elbow grease, and good vibes to every floor!

Congratulations to Fitsum for joining his first session with us, hope to see you again soon!

It's Tuesday evening, and as always we had a team of GoodGymers heping at FoodCycle. Gill was leading in the kitchen while the others set up the tablea, greeted the guests, and served them with a delicious three course meal. Abdulrahman demonstrated his versatility by jumping from the hosting team into the kitchen team as we were shirt handed and needed some help with plating up. It was another succeaful meal and all cleaned up in record timing.

We had a tree-o of GoodGymers working under the trees by Rivebank School this morning. with rakes and garden forks they were put to work clearing a section of the woodland area in preparation for planting bulbs. It was quite a work out as we needed to dig deep to remove bricks and rubble and lots of deep rooted brambles and ivy. But it was good fun. We were especially pleased to welcome Mustafa as it was his first task with GoodGym. Hope he comes back for more GoodGym capers.
