Bexley Report written by John D Wren
we were back at Box3Education, a new initiative which recently secured a unit in The Mall, Bexleyheath that will house their free design school, community coffee shop, and art gallery.
After meeting up with Levi outside the shopping mall we made our way into the centre.
Lots had been done since our last visit and things were beginning to take shape!
We all got stuck in with the painting. Ashton was our mentor as he knows a bit about technique. We got so much done in a short space of time. There was also a lot of chatting with Gemma and Monika our newest members - we look forward to seeing them again!

A change to our Wednesday evening schedule meant an impromptu litter pick for 7 Greenwich GoodGym-ers. After a warm up and an exchange of Autumn/Winter resolutions (more Goodgym at the top of the list for all of us obviously!) we had a downhill run to Anchor & Hope lane in Charlton, where lots of litter was waiting for us to trundle away.
Bottles, tins, cigarette boxes, newspapers, coffee cups, crisp bags, crunchie wrappers & everything in between ended up in our bags as we worked our way along the supermarket strip of Charlton.
Much chatter speeded the task along, and we'd some full bags to show for our efforts by the time an autumn shower rained on our parade (of shops) signalling the task end and a run for dry land.
This weekend we have Mycenae Gardens and tree planting at Roots4Life.
Thanks all & hope to see you soon 😊

Last night, 9 of us made our ways to St Luke's in Charlton, a few of us walking and some of us running the 3.5km from the Royal Naval College. A special welcome to Syd on his first task with us - great to have you along and hope to see much more of you over the coming months!
We soon got to work polishing pews, shining brass, scraping wax off tables and giving the church a good old hoover - it smelt lovely after just half an hour (where did the time actually go?!) and then we took a picture and headed out.
Lovely to see you all, as always!
On Sunday we've got helping out CABAHS at the Horn Fair and next Wednesday we're at Charlton Manor Primary School.
Until next time,
Rachel

What a great turn out this Sunday morning! Ten GoodGymers turned up to help Levi with his project at The Mall Bexleyheath.
We met Levi and Conroy who showed us what needed to be done.
We set to work painting the two washrooms, a kitchen and an office! Sounds a lot, it was but we got it done and what a transformation!
Sarah W was on coffee duty and we had the music playing in the background! Lots of conversations about parkruns and football was being had. It was a great way to spend a Sunday morning!
We managed to finish in good time and then went for a bite to eat at the Weatherspoons.
With the next visit secured in our diaries we headed off.

A blustery but thankfully dry Saturday morning in October blew 2 goodgym-ers to Maryon Park Community Garden in Charlton.
For anyone that's not visited, the garden is a community food growing area within one of Charlton 's many green spaces, where plothouders grow everything from pumpkins to tomatoes, beetroot to beans, and today we saw some pretty giant courgettes!
Our task today was to clear away a build-up of leaves from the entrance pathways, to make the area safer and tidier. Leafblower & shovels at the ready, we'd soon run out of space in the composting bins and it was time for a tidy up and a catch up with Tim & Edna.
Have a great weekend all! 😊
