Last night 13 GoodGymmers made their way to the Brighton Community Workshop and Tool Library, to help them with some cleaning and sorting as they prepare for some renovations and improvements.

We also welcomed Sarah and Annie at their first GoodGym session in Brighton!

Some of us were on shelf duty – offloading and clearing the units before putting everything back neat and tidy, while the rest of us were on wood-sorting duty – reorganising hundreds of pieces of board, timber and off-cuts to make them more accessible for those using the workshop.

Many hands make light work, and within just half an hour we’d made a huge difference to the space and our hosts were so grateful. When our work was done, a few of us headed over the road for our monthly social, and our return to the infamous Pub Quiz at The Kemp. After an epic music round and a lucky guess about the number of whiskers on a cat (it's 24...) we came 5th and won a whole TEN POUNDS to put into the social kitty 😊

In honor of our winnings, we asked ChatGPT to write us a poem…enjoy!

A group of runners, swift and bright, Laced up their shoes and took to flight. But on this day, they faced a test, Not of speed, but of wit’s best.

With knowledge wide, and minds astute, They gathered round, ready to loot The answers that would win the prize, With focus sharp and gleaming eyes.

Questions flew, a tricky race, But these keen minds kept up the pace. From history’s depths to science’s core, They answered all and then asked for more.

At last, the scores were tallied high, A cheer rang out, a joyful cry. They’d conquered both the mind and mile, Their victory earned with clever style.

So here’s to the runners, fast and wise, Who crossed the line with quiz-winner’s prize. They proved that brains and speed unite, For every challenge, they take flight.

Here is WHAT's ON NEXT at GoodGym Brighton!

Plenty to amuse you to join us soon for the GoodGym January Challenge!
