Six superstar GoodGymmers hit the Age UK Superstore in Leicester this week, ready to roll up their sleeves for another productive morning of volunteering.

Our tasks? Sorting play pens of tops into short sleeve and long sleeve piles and untangling a jungle of hangers, complete with size cubes. Precision, patience, and plenty of laughter got the job done.

A good catch up for everyone, lots of stories of the Equinox24 a 24hr trail race, from midnight Mel marshalling duties soaked in rain and windswept to Stu's amazing milestone of hitting 60k over six laps, he was well prepared with 1000 miles of training.

A massive well done team, everyone got stuck in as always more hands making a lighter load. Age UK are always full of praise for the difference we make. From sorting sleeves to swapping stories, we proved once again that teamwork makes the dream work!

On Sunday, four dedicated GoodGymmers gave their time to support local parkruns across Leicester.

Lorna and Stu took on marshalling duties at Watermead parkrun, helping to ensure the event ran smoothly and safely. Meanwhile, Nick was stationed at Play Close in Melton, also volunteering as a marshal and supporting runners throughout the course.

A big well to all the volunteers for representing GoodGym and giving back to the community!

A brambly morning at Saffron Acres as a small but mighty team tackled the overgrown fence line.

Goodgym ledgends Stu and Nick were joined by new GoodGym member Srinivas, who’s currently studying at DMU, great to have him join on his first Good Deed. Armed with shears, rakes and determination, they got to work clearing the grass and brambles along the perimeter fence. It was a bit of a jungle to begin with, but they soon made solid progress, revealing clear paths and tidy edges by the end of the session.

Also a big congratulations to Stu on his 401st Good deed, a celebration cake is owed the next time I see you! Weldone Stu.

Great work all round and a big welcome again to Srinivas hope to see you on more sessions soon!

Weldone to Nick, Lindsay, Gillian, Stu and Lynn getting fitter picking litter from DMU along route 6 cycle route in Leicester.

Nick... Plenty of rubbish and a bag of crushed cans this morning. Loads stuck behind the tall fence with narrow gaps that we couldn't pull anything through.

Lindsay... We definitely made a difference. Lots of thirsty folk at this time of year judging by all the discarded cans and bottles 😕

Weldone everyone fantastic efforts in some summer heat today.
