It was a day of triumph both for nature lovers and football fans as GoodGym Barnet joined the Coppetts Wood Festival on a sunny day that also saw England clinch a victory against Serbia in the European championships. The festival buzzed with community spirit, inviting everyone to dive into the beauty of Coppetts Wood and celebrate local initiatives. Amidst the towering oaks, festival-goers enjoyed a puppet show, face painting, and live music, while savoring BBQ treats and craft beer. GoodGym’s Paul Salman and newcomer Sanchita shared the exciting journey of Barnet’s Tiny Forest, inspiring many to roll up their sleeves for the environment. The day was more than just fun; it was a call to action. Engaging chats with locals like a Morris dancer who promotes safe cycling revealed a collective drive for a greener, more active community. check out his hurdy-gurdy! So why not jump in? Whether it’s supporting a Tiny Forest or grooving with Morris dancers, your local community is the place to be. Let’s keep the spirit alive and kick goals for nature and neighborhood alike!
