It was great to meet up with four Goodgymers after the festive season..It was nice to meet up with Loren for the first time she had just moved to Bournemouth from London.We meet at the Auger Collective which is a new charitable Art Gallery previously we have rollered the walls .We where set the task of rolling the walls once more as there where some patches.So the four of us set to and soon had the walls done and the paint cleaned off the floor so it would be all nice for the grand opening on Thursday To which we have been invited to attend at 6pm . Please keep an eye on the web site as there will be a lot of tasks posted.

Two GoodGymers Harry and Sophie, attended today’s session, helping Westbourne rotary’s Santa’s grotto. (Congratulations Harry for completing your tenth good deed!) We got dressed up in festive attire to greet the children of Boscombe who were all very excited to see Santa! This was a very fun session, meeting approximately 17 families, which was classed as a ‘Slow’ day! The rotary were very thankful for our support today!

Three Goodgymmers, Daryl, Keith and Lea, had another lovely time walking along Santa's sleigh. Well, the beginning was certainly lovely, but whether there were so many more children to talk to Santa or people coming out to greet Santa, it certainly wasn't the fastest route! But whether slow or fast: the shining eyes of all the kiddies makes it all worthwhile. And going by the weight of the buckets.... another successful night, for sure. And the weather gods were once again smiling down on us.

Four Goodgymers meet at Sandbanks to Help Rose Road charity they help children and young people with complex disabilities.Today they put on a LandRover convoy to Christchurch.We where asked to go round with collection buckets and sell raffle tickets before the convoy set off.There was Land Rovers of all ages some decorated some not .What i must mention is Joanna from Poole who is Going to be a Run Leader and is going to make a very good one it was a pleasure to assess her .

Another Santa night… two Goodgymmers, Keith and Lea, nicely lit up with bright lights, followed Santa’s Sleigh around Iford tonight. Buckets got filled with pennies and pounds, while our feet were pounding along the streets especially when Santa decided to speed up the sleigh on the return journey!
