Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
Area Activator Simon and community leader Eslam met up at Timbuktu Adventure Playground last night, along with Emily, Michael, Haseeb and first timer Xia (welcome!). It was wonderful to return after the Easter holiday weekend, back to help the team at Islington in Play to maintain this well loved children's play park.
https://islingtonplay.org.uk/take-part/playgrounds/timbuktu-adventure-playground/
After unlocking a slighty tricky door, our crew were offered shovels and forks and we cracked on with turning soil and wood chips across the playground. The intention was to create soft landing areas for children playing on the climbing frames and rope swings- soil and mud starts to harden up over the Summer months.
Half way through our session, we switched our attention to cultivating the garden plot area at the back of the playground. We turned to earth for various flower beds, ready for future planting projects. Emily was in charge of picking our plastic and debris from all of the flower beds too, collecting up almost an entire bucket from the garden along.
Congratulations everyone. A great job, well done!

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice
Area Activator Simon was joined by a top crew of Goodgym runners at the Arsenal Community Hub early on Monday evening. After a series of warm up drills on the slopes, we ran up the Aubert Park Hill, and straight down to the Elizabeth House Community Food Hub.
Upon our arrival we were greeted by Alice and Nathalie, the resident food hub volunteers, who were thrilled to see us. The team had already been working hard throughout the day, preparing deliveries and essential supplies for neighbourhood familes and isolated peoples. The space is set out like a supermarket, dedicated to donated food and produce, where visitors can drop in. Over the holidays, demand increases, so an additional Monday supermarket day is set up by the team, and our Goodgym crew will often come down to lend a hand!
Firstly, we arranged to drop off a series of prepared deliveries across the borough (Dharmesh, Bianca, Caitlin and Kim took on this role). In the meantime, the rest of us helped with re-organising the storage space under a table in the main kitchen- it was full of canned goods and non perishable foods, but needed a good sweep and some re-arranging. A good job, well done!
Next on the agenda, our team remained on hand to assist with packing supplies into bags for our visitors. As the food hub started to close up, we cleared away crates, tables, food supplies and chairs. Every area and every surface was cleaned, sanitised and swept up and we made sure that the community hall was ready for the children's play scheme the next day.
Great work everyone. Have a smashing Easter break! See you at Timbuktu Adventure Playground next Monday!
