We met Yin at Ardler Road allotments to help her out with some jobs on the Food4Families plot. They grow fruit and veg which is donated to local groups.

It was a lovely morning to be outside and getting stuck in! Jessica joined us for the first time, and she and Jenni took straight to pulling weeds out, to make sure that everything had space to grow.

Chris got to work on digging trenches to plant potatoes, and after weeding and planting potatoes, Jessica helped with getting everything watered too!

After an hour and a half, we had completed all the jobs needed for today. We'll be back again to help with more jobs throughout the growing season!

We had the pleasure of cheering on the Reading half marathon runners, powered by pom-poms, tambourines and cow bells supplied by Sport in Mind.

We started the morning by meeting at Reading train station and then making our way to Forbury gardens where the Sport in Mind gazebo was based.

It was a cloudy day but fueled with the energy of the other supporters and some very sugary drinks, we had a blast and cheered on every single runner! It was great to see some new Goodgymers joining us too. Ganesh, Joshna and Sandra brought great energy to the mix and it was a lovely event to witness.

We ended the day by helping to pack up the gazebo and items before heading back in the afternoon.

Thanks again to Jenni, Chris, Ganesh, Joshna and Sandra for attending and see you all at the next one!
