We had a great evening supporting the Mear Neighbours project at the Shri Guru Ravidass Sangat Gudwara on Thursday evening. 6 incredibly focused members of the Goodgym Luton team helped to host the event where the temple welcomed members if the Roma trust and Friends of the temple. The team helped to prep, cook and clear down on the night and were able to share the delicious food that was prepared as part of the project. We had great fun and look forward to our next session. Well done team

This morning I went along to the Warden Hill Community garden to prep the ground and sow some mustard seeds. It was hard word as the ground was quite compact in places but with a little bit of sweat and effort, I had a lovely seed bed ready for planting. At one point I could feel something in the ground that was hard to turn over. I remember last year, the team found some sizable rocks 🪨 and I thought it was another one, but it turned out to be a piece of pipe. I navigated around it, although I did have a good go at digging it out, it wasn't having any of it. I finished off watering all the beds then headed off to the next task

Goodgymers Martin and Tigger were delighted to find the Warden Hill community garden springing into production already with shallots and onions growing well. Taking advantage of the perfect gardening weather, they prepared more ground and popped in broad beans and pea seeds, and started on shaping up and allocating more of the plot for sowing some spinach and various greens at next visit. Great spot for a Sunday morning workout with spade, fork and watering cans.

Tonight brought about the last cooking session for the Roma trust and the friends of the temple at the Shri Guru Ravidass Sangat Gudwara in town. We at Luton Goodgym have supported for 12 sessions which has helped the temple deliver a project that has brought together communities that otherwise may not cross paths and all through sharing the delights of Indian cooking. As this was the last session, our team turned out 11 volunteers to help with, prep, cooking and tidying up afterwards, as well as chatting and continuing to forge relationships with everyone on the room. 5 of us were a little late to the task as we were finishing up at another volunteerinng session in the town, but that didn't hold back the other 6 from getting stuck in. Making chapatis and putting all the ingredients together to make the tarka for the daal. Everyone took their turn tonight and the atmosphere was electric. The chai was flowing and the conversation was fantastic. Everyone had a great time this evening and we look forward to supporting the temple in the future as they always make us feel so welcome. Well done everyone and thanks for continuing to show what a fantastic bunch you all are.

Turn out for tonights task at the Shri Guru Ravidass Sangat Gudwara was great as 11 Luton goodgymers came to the penultimate cooking class as part of the temples near neighbours project, helping to integrate communities. The whole team got stuck in with cooking, washing pots and chatting to the guests from the Roma trust and the Irish forum. Mayra was especially pleased tonight as she got to wear her Red GoodGym shirt for the first time, Adrian also looked splendid as he wore his for the first time too. We look forward to seeing you guys out in those shirts again soon. After helping the aunties cook up some delicious treats, Sanjeev from the temple thanked everyone for their support over the 12 sessions and presented a cooking book with all the recipes we've helped to cook. I really feel like our support with this project has made a difference and I appreciate the opportunity afforded to us to be able to help. Well done team. you were great tonight

8 Goodgymers joined the Friends of the temple and members of the Roma trust, to support the cooking classes at the Sri Guru Ravidass Sangat Gudwara. There was lots of fun, and learning for the groups invited to the event and the Goodgym faithful were able to support with prepping, cooking and washing up/ tidying down. We welcomed Joseph to his first good gym task and we hope yo see him at many more in the future. Great gig guys. Well done
