Stock Exchange

Crystal Palace Report written by Mark Gilyead (he/him)

Tonight was a double deed day. Two tasks for two top local organisations - St Hugh's Community Centre and Living Well who provide a food bank and support to those who need it.

We kicked off at the Bridge House with a belated fave pancake question. I didn't know some people didn't like pancakes?!

Also, shout out to Colette for joining us tonight - nice one for getting stuck in!

We split in two:

📦 Catherine, Clare, Collette and Stephen headed down into Penge to shift a whole lotta stock from the storage room and into the main shop area at Living Well's charity shop.

🚪 James, Cat, David and I took the long route to Anerley, where St Hugh's Community Centre had a load of leaflets advertising all the important wellbeing and community services they offer to deliver through doors on the estate.

Both teams nailed their tasks and timing and those who headed back to base arrived minutes apart.

Well done everyone 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Hatching GoodGym Crystal Palace 🐣

Crystal Palace Report written by Bromley runner

The moment has arrived! We got so big that we had to split into two 😱 GoodGym Bromley will move its axis eastwards, and we're rebranding as GoodGym Crystal Palace 🗼 No need to worry about poaching, though - you'll be seeing a lot of overlap between the two groups.

It might be a new name, but the team and task are familiar 😊 For this Group Run we were headed back to Dorset Road Allotments for round 6 of breaking up an old and overgrown chicken coop so that the land could be added to the communal space used for events and gatherings.

We first met at the Bridge House, where this week's question was "What's your favourite month?", spurred by Stephen's relief that the sunny months were on the way. We had March, June, November and more, all for a variety of reasons - nice!

Without further ado, we got our run on as Dorset Road is a huge 3km run from the Bridge House 🏃 We scrambled to the Allotments to meet Jeannette, who helps organise the upkeep of the space.

When we last came here in 2024 we did a lot of work to snip all the weeds to stop them growing, and this had paid off in in spades as this time as everything was dead and brittle - you could almost say fried - so it was easy to remove. We also managed to extract a good amount of the wood structure and wire roof covering. You could really see the impact GoodGym had made!

Awesome job, and I think everyone had loads of fun. Looking forward to coming back 🎉

Riveting painting at the Paxton

Bromley Report written by Bromley runner

Two things to do at our brand new task tonight at the Paxton Centre, a community creative hub on Anerley Hill.

We met at the Bridge House and answered tonight's icebreaker - What's your favourite paint name? We had the bright: razzle dazzle rose to the more sombre: gunmental grey.

Setting out, we did a spiral out along Oakfield Road and then onto Anerley Road and up the hill to our destination. On arrival we met Beth, the proprietor of the space, who wanted help with touch up paintwork downstairs 🖌️ and fastening the legs of a set of tables upstairs 🔩

James led the way in taking apart the tables so we could get to the nuts that needed to be tightened, while GoodGym returnee Matthew and team got to work taking down the various prints on the walls and painting behind them where the colour beneath had chipped off over time.

Both teams did a great job and we were done by 8pm, ready to head off home with Beth grateful for our help. Alone, it would've taken her a long time to do those jobs, but with a few helping hands we could get lots done in 30 minutes! 🕗

Join Cat next week for some wire brushing at Alexandra Recreation Ground (and warmer weather! 🤞)

Pop-up fun in the spotlight

Bromley Report written by Fiona (She/her)

After a quick chat about pets, and some stargazing on the way (the crescent moon and bright Venus) five of us valiantly battled up the hill to Crystal Palace, where it flattens out through the bright lights, and we headed to meet Shakib at the estate's storage shed. We met the other five of us there, and quickly formed a pack of giggling but very efficient gazebo popper-uppers. Excited by the new task, some of us working inside the (really quite new and nice) gazebos and some directing from outside, we made sure all the bits needed were there, and that everything worked ok. Then with spotlights and headtorches flashing, a brief mini disco effect made us all laugh, before we packed everything back down as neatly as we could to make it easier when the estate's event day comes round. A new task complete, and hopefully the start of a new regular place to help out over the year.

Gazebo raves should definitely become a thing. Cheers Fiona - great sesh!
