5 Goodgymers met in Kidwells Park to litter pick, working in teams a social wonder around the park found all sorts of forgotten treasures. Bottles, cans, an entire magazine and many other things. After an hour in the setting sun we met back together outside the community centre to combine our efforts. From diving in the bushes to surrounding the play park, hundreds of balloons and cigarette butts were the only things we had to leave behind.
Many people using the park stopped to thank us for taking the time to clear the space, families playing cricket and playing in the children's play park all appreciated our efforts. A group from the community centre were also looking around the site and one expressed an interest in joining our team in the near future.
Lots of good spirit and time for old and new faces to enjoy the Goodgym vibes. Thank you to Jess and the team for keeping me in check and on task.

In a big week for getting the band back together, 11 GoodGymers reunited at our very own Oasis of calm: Nature's Haven.
This week's Masterplan was to cut down some unruly shrubbery behind the Community Centre to make way for new planting. We were Definitely Maybe up to the task.
Working our way through the bushes Little By Little, we quickly cleared what Some Might Say was an impressive amount. Check out our time lapse video on social media to see our progress!
There was even time for celebrations afterwards, with cakes (thanks Juli!) to mark Sheila's 701 good deed! Congratulations to Sheila, and also to Juli and Viv, who marked 200 and 10 good deeds respectively.
Thanks to everyone who helped!

Bramble clearing and hole-digging were not even a challenge for this group of hardy GoodGymmers!
Runners, walkers, cyclists and four-wheeled, we came in all shapes and forms to the Maidenhead Community Allotment.
While Sol and Tony dug a big hole for the planting the big fig tree, all the others set upon the brambles around the new fruit trees. Once cleared, everybody joined the diggers - some to help move the tree into the hole and others to ensure the quality of the planting.
We nearly had a moment of Jen-tree-fication when Jen jumped in the hole to push down the tub meant to hold the tree. But she was safely removed before the tree was successfully planted.
A special shout out to Viv on racing to 10 deeds already in no time!

Olympic effort by team Goodgym. Goodgymers made their way to the mencap society to sand and paint the garden benches, so everyone can sit and enjoy the sunshine. The task was followed by tea and delicious Olympic themed cake😁
