Last night we were back at Chiswick Horticultural and Allotment Society to help Hounslow Community Foodbox with their vegetable patch.

Ten goodgymers made their way to meet Steve, one of the Foodbox volunteers, to dig the plot, turn over the soil and make a start with planting potatos. We welcomed Ritchie to his first Hounslow task and there was lots of energy and enthusiam thanks to the lighter nights and sunny days.

All the produce grown will go towards emergency food parcels for people in need in the borough. Foodbox are super grateful for the help and we'll be back next week to continue turning the soil and planting more veg.

Smashing effort!

It felt more like Boxing Day than St Patrick’s day in Hammersmith tonight, as six GoodGymmers from across West London came to help out at the TRAID restock. A regular jaunt, the task tonight was to help the clothes charity ready for the new season restock. Hangers were cleared from the rails and clothes methodologically folded into giant cardboard boxes to be taken off for restock. Not all heroes wear capes, some have tape - Sevan and Monika did a class job of making and packing the boxes. GoodGym Hammersmith Legend Jonathan lent a hand when he wasn’t too busy checking out some of the latest fashions (he was gutted that the Thai boxing shorts weren’t quite in his size), and we welcomed Hannah and Lizzie along to their first ever GoodGym tasks - and they did a rail-ly great job getting the clothes where they needed to be. Mission completed, box ticked, and six good deeds done!
