Tonight, GoodGym Kingston had a fantastic group run and session at the Full Cycle Bicycle Project! With a great turnout, we were kept busy with a whole host of new jobs and a few we are always happy to help out with:

Our tasks included:

Sorting out the loading bay and re-organising bike parts 🛠️

Reordering the upcoming servicing schedule 📅

Giving bikes a good clean ✨

Pumping up countless tyres 💨

And a general tidy-up to leave the place gleaming! 🧹

As we efficiently tackled each job, more things to do were found. We always love to support this amazing project and look forward to being back to tackle some more tasks soon.

A huge welcome to both Shammy and Amy! We hope you enjoyed your first session and will be joining us again soon for more good deeds and great company!

The team had a productive session tidying up at Squirrels today! Kicking things off with a real test of strength, with a very large roll of paper that needed shifting in the van - the perfect warm up! We then got stuck into some serious tidying with trimming a tree and clearing weeds and moss, leaving the area looking much neater. Great work, everyone, it's always brilliant when we make a visible difference!

Tonight, the team showed that even with a few regulars missing, a dozen hands can make a huge impact! We arrived to find Neaz and the team of Friends of Mostyn Gardens, ready to tackle an overgrown flower bed. Hacking back elderflower, pulling out stubborn ivy, and getting our hands dirty digging out weeds and turning the soil - it was a satisfying session.

Having cleared the way for the planting, we look forward to returning at the end of July to help with more jobs. Well done team!

Our third visit to Raynes Park station to help with the planting. After donning our high-viz jackets, it was all hands on deck to move the delivery of soil from the street up to the platforms, fill the planters and beds, then do the watering. Luckily we had a large turn out of loco-motivated volunteers for a heavy job, and the new recruits swiftly passed their training. A special welcome to Alex for her first task. After all that hard work, some of us let off steam over a swift half at the local pub - just the ticket.
