Report Title : Big Hedge-party(birthday time)
Five goodgymers warmed up at the Chiswick townhall to run roughly 1.3km and meet two Goodgym cyclists and Jo from Wild Chiswick at the corner of Spencer Road(Grove Park Area). Prickly community mission tonight to deliver leaflets at houses around Grove Park Area. Raising awareness about creating safe hedgehog habitats locally. Jo handed the leaflets to the team and they all started the prickly shuffle around the area with a mixture of running and walking. Once the team covered the area Jo suggested, they meet again with her and Jo was very thankful to have a team of Sonic Hedgehog’s running around to support their organization. The team ran and cycled back to Chiswick to stretch and go for food and a drink, not to forget a piece of cake as it was Leticia birthday recently. The cake was not Sonic the Hedgehog, but Colin the Caterpillar. It was unspiketably good!!! Great achievement for Emily as reached 300 good deeds today!!!

Camden Report written by Emily Oldfield
After a very quick cycle ride over I met Mr M and was also greeted by his cat Ella. The task was to clear and reorganise two shelves in the hallway bureau. Mr M has no vision but amazing sense of touch so we went through everything to identify what it was, whether to keep it and sort items together to create sections, with the most useful stuff in the most accessible part of the drawers. Whilst the drawers were empty I also managed to give them a clean. Mr M was extremely grateful.

Suns out, spades out!
It was the loveliest day of the year so far, which always fills us with Vitamin D fueled energy. Which was good news as we had a big task to reclaim some overground areas in Chiswick.
After a very short run we arrived to meet Karen from Abundance London, who had brought with her a barrow full of tools. There is a set of beds right by the busy A4 that have become really neglected. Abundance have cleared one and planted it with lots of pollinators, o there was a stark difference between the cared for space, and the overgrown, litter strewn area we were there to tackle.
We wasted no time (and I even managed to remember to take a 'before' shot, so you can really see how much we got done) getting stuck in. Out came bindweed, cans, bricks, some wrangled metal, a broom head and more weeds than you can shake a fork at.
We were doing so well that a splinter group featuring Chris, Alan and Gus even moved over the road to work on pulling up grass and clearing another area. While we worked we remarked how just a little care makes a big difference. If passers by see well-loved, neat and flourishing beds they are much less likely to chuck their litter there and much more likely to want to take some ownership for its upkeep. So well done everybody, it really is time well spent.
After finishing up we made our way back to the green. Thanks to the rain it had been a while since we'd had an opportunity to do a proper core session so we took advantage of the lovely weather to knock out a series of exercises aimed at strengthening our abs. Just look at those happy faces in the photos!
On Saturday there is a great community mission to plant at Harvard Hill. So far we have no sign up so it would be wonderful if you had a short window to spare to lend a hand! Here are all the details you need.
Happy GGing everybody!
