I can't run but I love helping out! I need to get more active and what better way than by helping people?

Marie Loup has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Marie is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Poole Report written by Esther
We awaiting a new Area Activator in Poole, but when we were asked for help from Diverse Abilities with some gardening work, we could only say a big fat YES! The first time, we had to cancel due to poor weather but this date was finally set.
We meet nearby to the supported living bungalow to meet and headed off for a run. This was the stomping ground of Christine so she lead us into Coy Pond for a trail run in the warm evening. We ran through the gardens, taking the graffiti walls as a turn around point. An ideal place for a run when you want to relax and chill!
We gathered our tools from car on way back and headed to the bungalow. Slightly later than planned, Marie was waiting outside (so sorry for lateness Marie!). This was Marie 1st session at as Goodgymer and within minutes she had named the grass like weed / flower for us! (Something to do with snakes 😆)!
The garden needed a good tidy up, weed and trimming and Becky who was from fundraising, was there to meet us and give us direction. We met one of the ladies who lived there too who was interested to see what we were up to!
Patricia was straight onto a bush with a pair of cutters and emerged 30 mins later surrounded by leaves!
Christine focused on the weeds on one side and find therapy in clearing a whole section.
Marie was found clearing up the debris and just getting in there for help. Just like a Goodgym Pro!
Robert, always giving it 100% with any task he tackles
Elizabeth, forever supprotive and hardworking, moved across the garden clearing away weeds.
The team loved being back together and we hope to return next month to carry on.
The garden can be enjoyed even more by its residents now with easier access and much tidier!
Well done Team!
