Sand of hope and glory

Hounslow Report written by Anastasia Hancock (she/her)

With September on the horizon and the crunch of leaves underfoot, there were some proper back to school vibes at our task last night when we...er, went back to school.

Our job for the night was at Strand on the Green primary school, a place where we go and help out on a regular basis. However, unlike our normal visits, it was only as we got to the bridge near the entrance to the school did we find that the footbridge was closed! Luckily there was lots of local knowledge in the group and we soon opted for a slightly longer deviation.

We arrived to find loads of tools and armed with our set of instructions, we divided up into teams to tackle the various jobs. Emily, Maxime, Harvey, Matt and Jon got busy sanding down the metal trolleys so that they can be painted ready for the new term. It was painstaking work, but it's definitely going to breathe new life into the equipment.

Meanwhile Pippa was weeding and Michelle sweeping up the leaves and debris on the road, just as Eloise and Kymm snipped and pruned the hedge. Gus and Luis had the big guns out with the saw and trimmer, lopping off the tall sections of the overgrown bushes.

It's amazing what a team can achieve together. While everybody was working I was (trying) to work out how much time we would have saved the caretaker who manages the site. With 14 of us working for 45 minutes, that equates to 10.5 working hours - more than a full working day! What an impact.

There was just time to squeeze in a fitness session which featured AMRAP (as many reps as possible) and an abs based challenge based on the Oops Upside Your Head moves! (IFYYK)

This weekend there is a lovely mission to help support WLQP's birthday celebrations - sign up here and don't forget to fill in the form so they know you're coming. Next weeks it is our last visit to help Cultivate finish collecting up the leaves to turn them into mulch. The GG fun never stops!

The apple never falls far from the leaves

Ealing Report written by Kash

The last group run of August 2025 took GoodGym runners Sevan, Harvey, Freya and Steph Ducat to South Acton in a pursuit of perfection in the art of leaf mulch making. At Berrymede School, they met Kash and Chris, and, of course, Romina from Cultivate London, who would guide them in preparing the finest 2024 leaf compost, continuing their work started in July.

Last year's leaves were well-marinated: dark, moist and rich - easy to tell apart from golden, crispy 2025 leaves that already started falling onto the schoolyard. We had to do our best to finish the 2024 batch before it got contaminated by this season's additions. Chris, Freya, Sevan and Kash positioned themselves at the leaves deposit to dig out the damp organic gold. The lowest layers already had some growth in them. The GoodGymers found peculiar white sprouts and even apples: one edible (presumably, as no one actually tried it), and another - an Apple device! Cultivate London charity could grow rich by growing more iPhones rather than selling leaf mulch to raise funds!

Harvey, in breaks from shovelling leaves, was driving the trolley with half-full tonne bags to Bay 2024, where Steph was performing leaf stomping: an ancient tradition of treading the mulch by feet to release the juices and initiate fermentation. As the time went on, the half-full bags in the bay, topped up with Harvey's deliveries and compressed by Steph, grew fatter and denser. Romina was delighted to see what outstanding results a small team could achieve and gave the GoodGymers a round of high-fives.

Next week, our Tuesday session will take place near Ealing Broadway. We will be pruning and watering at the much-loved Lammas Orchard. Sign up now to join us!

You better beleaf it

Wandsworth Report written by Anastasia Hancock (she/her)

Sunny? On a bank holiday? We could not quite beleaf it!

Still, while others may have opted to soak up the rays in the park or enjoy a tipple in a shady beer garden, four GoodGymers decided to spend their lunchtime having a positive impact at a local community space.

We enjoyed a brisk run down to Christchurch gardens, a public space and church which is home to a church hall, park and nursery. They have a number of mature plane trees which, though beautiful and pollution-combating, do drop a lot of leaves which stop the grass from growing and become slippy when wet.

In what is technically known as a 'two-fer', our job yesterday was not only going to help out Christchurch community garden by clearing the leaves, but in a couple of weeks we're going to be transporting them to Doddington community garden so they can be mulched and used next year for nutrient rich growing matter. Win win!

Over the space of 45 minutes we gathered 10 huge 80 litre bags of leaves. Not bad going! Job done we headed off our separate ways to enjoy the sun and that post GG buzz...

Kingston upon Thames Report written by Kingston upon Thames runner

Today 7 goodgymers did a litter pick in their local areas, to help improve their surroundings. Getting out to stretch the legs, anything to avoid the housework. 🙌

Super Sunday

Slough Report written by Slough runner

It's the last bank holiday of the year and what better way to spend it than in Slough!

That's what Ealing member Harvey thought anyway as he kindly offered to support our junior parkrun task today.

Thank you to Nisha, Sara, Devajani and Adam too for coming down to support.
