The team did well on another successful service! Despite a pretty uninspiring surplus of clementines, cabbages, unripe bananas, and spring onions, the kitchen magic was strong.

On the menu: miso cabbage, rice and beans with “plantain” chips, and a zesty clementine cake to round things off. All 24 guests left happy and well-fed, proof that a little creativity goes a long way!

This was a novel task, helping to clear away the book fair, which was set up by other members of our team yesterday. It was the 47th edition of the fair and the organisers were immensely grateful for our GoodGym muscle. We shifted boxes of books, dismantled tables and helped to lift long rows of chairs down from the stage. With everyone on the same page, we were bound to finish in no time!

A fantastic effort by the team on our mission tonight, helping the Merton Garden Streets project get their flowers in order - literally! We successfully delivered packages of bulbs to addresses across three different areas (Raynes Park, South Wimbledon and Colliers Wood) showing splitting up can lead to a lot of blooming good.

Prioritizing safety, each team either walked, ran or cycled ensuring an energized evening of community effort, sowing the seeds for a brighter, more colorful spring for residents in Merton!
