Sophia Wyatt has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Sophia 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.

Sophia Wyatt completed their first weekend mission.
Sophia has forgone the usual weekend routine. Instead of lie-ins, roasts and strolls around the park Sophia has dropped everything to run a GoodGym mission for someone who needed help. Respect

As April drew to a close two North London GoodGym vets crossed the river to join forces with Bex and new GoodGymmers to help Library of Things move from Big Yellow self storage to their new home
Library of things (LoT) is a wonderful initiative which allows people to borrow useful household items they might want in the short-term without needing to own it outright; so think ladders, airbeds and breadmakers.
It was a milestone achievement for LoT as they had found a new home and so today we gathered at Big Yellow Self Storage in West Norwood to clear the storage locker, load a van (twice) and unload again in the new home just under a mile away.
We took a while to find our storage room (bizarrely Area V was tucked behind S rather than T and U!) but before long I (Patrick) turned on my retro tunes then began emptying out the box, passing all the contents to the rest of the team to load trolleys and then the van (driven by master carpenter Ben).
The Generation Game
The initial stock is eclectic and very much felt like a nod to the conveyor belt from The Generation Game. We saw:
Ladders
Roof racks
Printers
Food processors
Tents
Folding chairs
But no cuddly toys!
That kept me busy: Bex and Bryon went down to meet Ben and deal with van-load one. That left me, Yaga, Emma, Sophia and Jonny to deal with van-load two.
Run to the beef!
Yaga and I jogged and took the scenic route because, by the time we arrived at the new home, all the stock was unloaded and so was a picnic! YUM!
The nice lot from LoT had put on a spread including beef biltong, croissants, coffee fruit and crisps. All served with much love and in the lovely sunshine.
