On a chilly February evening eight GoodGymmers gathered at one of our frequent mission venues - The Brighton Community Kitchen. Four of us jogged from our meeting place at the Old Steine, whilst others met us there - all of us ready for some cleaning and tidying action!

As usual our host Jo had prepped and assigned us with our tasks including deep cleaning the ovens, washing down the chairs, walls and skirting boards - and of course the popular task of organising the cupboards and cooking equipment!

With a nostalgic 00s pop soundtrack to keep us motivated, we smashed through our jobs and the kitchen was looking fresh and clean ready for a busy half-term week of cooking classes for kids.

This evening, five of us headed to the Scope charity shop on London Road to lend a hand. With a stock take underway, our task was to tidy and organise the shop floor — sorting the clothing rails by size, colour, and type. It was a surprisingly satisfying job, and we all enjoyed bringing a little extra order to the store.

I was part of the team last April that helped clean the shop ahead of its launch, so it was fantastic to be back. The store still looks as stylish as ever — more boutique than traditional charity shop — and is packed with great finds, including a dedicated vintage section.

As closing time approached, a flurry of GoodGymers took the chance to try on some of the gems they’d spotted while sorting. The final haul? Five items bought and a very happy team!

Fancy joining for another visit on Friday? HERE’s your chance.

Goodgym joined over 40 other voluteers last Sunday on a cold drizzly day to collect litter from the beach. The session was organised by Surfers Against Sewage (SAS) 54kg of marine litter was collected, there were great vibes for all, and we were warmed by complimentary delicious @birdandblendtea tea. As well as this, prizes were handed out for the most litter collected and for the most unusual item collected. Nicola and her litter partner Amanda won some lovely prizes for half a coconut shell! These sessions are organised every month so watch out for others.
