Luton Report written by David Mansfield
This week for our group run we ran up the hill through High Town to our task on Hitchin road where community clean-up coordinator Kevin from ABCD Luton and some local residents had already got started.
A couple of road-side areas were overgrown with shrubs and weeds and needed cutting back and tidying up. On arrival our team were tooled up with shears, saws, loppers and brushes and set to cutting back and clearing up.
With our large team we managed to clean up a huge stretch of road and filled an amazing five big bags of cuttings which needed dragging up the hill to the point that the council was booked to collect from.
Before retreating back down the hill we took a few minutes to do a few rounds of walking lunges, crunches and squats in the park to round off an energetic evening.

We used to think that we loved running, but tonight we weren’t sure,
And we couldn’t wait to do lunges right close to the floor.
But when we got to the hat fact’ry, right into the town,
The sun was still baking, so hot it was making us frown.
☀️
We’re walking in sunshine, 🚶🏽♂️woah,
Some running in sunshine, 🏃♂️woah,
And cycling in sunshine, 🚴woah,
And don’t it feel good?
☀️
We met with our new guys, and set off for something to do.
The runners were keen to get started but slowed down it’s true.
FC 61wanted us back for some painting
Come back any day, oh yeah yeah,
And once we had got there we happily painted away.
☀️
Woah yeah!
☀️
We’re painting in sunshine, woah,
A GoodGym team of nine, woah,
We’re starting to feel fine, woah,
And aren’t the posts good!
☀️
We did arrive, with lots of drive, the posts revived, that’s really real
We all did strive, snacks helped us thrive, we all survived, that’s really real.
☀️
Walked back without sunshine, woah,
We all had a good time, woah,
We’re cool now and won’t whine, woah,
☀️
And don’t we feel good?
😀

It's Tuesday night so it must be FoodCycle for some of the regulars in GoodGym who enjoy teaming up with the other FoodCycle volunteers to help ensure the smooth running of the community meal.
This evening was no different.
Gill started the session early with a trip to Sainsburys to pick up a mountain of food surplus. After unlocking the church and doing the usual checks, she then unloaded the crates of food and got them all weighed and sorted before the others arrived. The kitchen team, joined by Martin and Gill were soon busy peeling, chopping and prepping another delicious three course meal. Ruth and Abdo arrived to set up the hall: setting out tables, filling the urn, putting out the cloths and cutlery and making sure everything was ready to greet the guests. And of course Abdo was on hand to ensure the menu was written up and suitably decorated. Mehdi had also arrived to help and joined us later for the meal. They were then kept busy serving the guests and washing up afterwards.
It's hard work, but good fun and fabulous team work. FoodCycle are very appreciative of all the help GoodGym provides. They couldn't do it without us. Well done all.
