Lambeth Report written by Yianny (he / him)
The crew was back last night meeting up at Papa's ready to head out and meet Annick and Jean over at the Brixton Allotments.
First up a very warm welcome to Jordan who was joining for her first Group Run with the Lambeth team - great to have you with us Jordan!
Fi joined us and we set off on a nice bright run round to the back of HMP Brixton and then on to the allotments, arriving just our walkers Marie-Noelle and Paul were striding up.
Our tasks this evening were to remove the broken greenhouse which was locked in an embrace with a tree that had grown around it, lots of weeding and clearing, rolling up some old carpet and laying down some new and moving the patio table over to the dancefloor which we had previously helped to lay last year!
By 8pm we had completed all the tasks (surprising our hosts) and were ready to set off but not before Annick had shared a beautiful bunch of forget me nots, some leek and baby kale all pulled straight from the ground and ready to be cooked up that evening.
Huge thanks to all and we look forward to seeing you next time - roll on summer tasks!!

Lambeth Report written by Yianny (he / him)
The evening's planned collab with Friday Night Lights didn't come to pass but that doesn't mean that Lambeth GoodGym wasn't ready to party.....
The team met as usual at Papa's and 6 trusty GGers including a new face were ready to crank up the tunes and head out to the task. The group offered a warm welcome to Manos for his first ever GG session - great to have you with us Mano!
We set off with AA's rather clunky speaker blaring out Motown hits through Brixton during rush hour and of course nobody batted an eyelid as many a stranger thing has been seen than a group of red clad runners partying to Ben E King and Bill Withers!!
On arrival at the Tulse Hill estate we were greeted by: - A very enthusiastic resident who danced with us in the car park despite being on CRUTCHES! - Alfred the very protective and excited dog - And our host Vinnie who had arranged the task for the evening
The task was a classic lift 'n' shift, grab all the timber and relocate it from the playground to the polytunnelas well as a massive roll of underlay and some pin boards, then dispose of the pallets by the recycling bins. We had serious muscle with us so while Alfred serenaded us with barking Ben, Manos, Scott, Tilly and Fi grabbed as much as they could and we were done in no time.
Task completed and Vinnie was delighted (Alfred maybe less so?) and so we loaded up Spotify to disco classics and were able to boogie our way all the way home.
Big thanks to all and see you next time (oh and Scott I'm expecting you to follow through on that 80s fancy dress in the coming weeks!)
