Jade Fox has done their first good deed with GoodGym.
Jade is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.

Camden Report written by Alex Murtough (he/him)
We met amidst a Summer North London on Wednesday. Gathered within the twilight brightness and between the commuters and passersby, our happy group met across the way from Belsize Park Station.
We had the joy of meeting Jade and Szymon, our two lovely newcomers, each on their first GoodGym outing - welcome!! They joined Jackie, John, and Steve, our GoodGym Camden regulars :)
Our journey to St Cuthbert's in Kilburn took us to busy thoroughfares and down quiet, leafy streets, and we saw a two-mile stretch of Camden's evening roads.
There's a special, peaceful, and beautiful gem of communal garden by St Cuthbert's in Kilburn. Hidden on the site of the original Victorian church, it's nestled in a restful space by the train tracks. This was our place to explore and help this week.
Across 50 minutes, and under the helpful guidance of our task owner Clare, we shifted a well-used pile of wood sleepers, re-balanced a tool shed and its underlining pallet, and hung the bunting (thanks to Szymon's tree climbing and Jackie's chair topping!) for this weekend's community event.
With 6 pairs of hands, we made a real difference; and with this wonderful group of interesting folk, I enjoyed stories, laughter, and conversation - thank you, everyone!
Here's to next time!
