We had a wonderful morning this morning doing something a little bit different! We took part in the walking carnival parade for Shirleys big eco festival - organised by the Wayne Howard foundation in memorial of Wayne Howard and to encourage sustainability in the local community.

The parade went around the local streets, spearheaded by a group of scottish bagpipers, a group of baton twirlers (then us!) followed by a convoy of eco friendly bikes of all shapes and varieties! Everyone was there to support and promote local sustainability and with an added bonus of a parade we definitely got our steps in!

After the parade we enjoyed the stalls including ones from our friends at Shirley Pond Park and Sholing Valleys. But the highlight was definitely the gorgeous Alpacas!

And to top it off we commandeered a cycling Stormtrooper!

Loved every second, cheering the walkers on and then walking with some of them time and time again in the last stretch and chatting to them about their experiences. A great morning with an awesome buddy.

Six Goodgymers turned up to assist RunThrough with their races today.

Steph and Laura were out on the course and had a great morning supporting runners at the final marshalling point. Cheering and running along with them on stretches of their last laps.

Phillip was a 62 min pacer for the 10km - helping people to get a pb on the course

India, Sarah and Wilson registered the runners and dished out race numbers and then helped at the finish line to hand out medals, water and treats!

Another great RunThrough event.

No team photo as we arrived and went straight to work - so sorry about that GG Team! Hope you all had a good morning 😊

Great time this morning helping out preparing a maze to be filled full of wonderful sensory plants. Worked with lovely people. Enjoyed the sunshine. Hope to be back.
