A gorgeous day in a gorgeous park!
Stanley Park is really beautiful and worth a visit for it's striking terraces, the Isla Gladstone Conservatory and bandstand, lake area, daffodil field and much more. We slowly made our way around picking up the usual debris of city park. The team there work so hard to keep it in good shape and it shows.
We had our own competition of who could find the strangest or most interesting item, with joint winners Christina for a toy train and Daniel who found a hammer! The prize of a much coveted Stanley Park Tote Bag jealously eyed up by yours truly (who doesn't love a good tote bag!)
Fabulous to have Phillip join us for his first GoodGym task, welcome to the team Phil!
We were also made up to find a couple of painted rocks left hidden for to put a surprise smile on peoples faces by the Liverpool Kindness Rocks project!

Rachel O'Byrne earned their community cape by completing their first community mission.
Rachel completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Rachel was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.

Stanley Park junior parkrun, a free, 2km run in Liverpool for young people aged from 4-14, is possibly the only parkrun in the country where not one but two Premier League football stadia (grammar!) are visible en route. Nine wonderful GoodGym members helped out today, in roles such as Timekeeper, Photographer, and Marshal. Plenty of encouragement and enthusiasm was on display as we supported 39 young people (and a few of their grown ups too!) to make their way round the two lap course. We were all done and dusted in plenty of time before the crowds started arriving in the area for this afternoon's F.A. Cup tie at Anfield between Liverpool and Everton. A special well done to Ben who completed his first GoodGym good deed today!

Clashing with the first England game of the World Cup, our terrific 12 forewent the footie to do good-deeds in our local community. I know who the real heroes are! And even better than the side in Russia, we had a 11-strong team of talented sports people, plus a coach barking orders from the sidelines! (waves)
After a 3.5km run from our Hope Street Hotel base to Harthill Youth Centre in Wavertree (with a little impromptu hill-training on the way!) the team set to work clearing a long overgrown path. The land around the youth centre has become pretty unruly but there are exciting plans to turn it into a community garden, with a little people power from GoodGym to help them along their way.
We had 4 fab newbies this week. So a big shout out to Adam, Kate, Adam and Rachael for fitting in perfectly with the rest of the team and really getting stuck in to the task.
The team at Harthill Youth Centre showed us their hospitable side once again and the runners were treated to orange slices and cookies before hitting the road. On the return leg we enjoyed a quick fitness session aimed at engaging our glutes and just about beat the rain back to Hope Street. Great effort GoodGym, you are so much more impressive than the England team ;)
Next week we're going back to where it all began, as we help out at Fern Grove community garden, which was also our very first GoodGym Liverpool task back in March. It is a newbie-friendly session with a flat run of about 2.4km (in each direction). So sign-up and bring a friend!
See you next time, Char <3
