3 GoodGymmers helped to raise awareness of Loughborough Area Foodbank with Trussel Trust. Holding the Fort of the food donations trolley, engaging with customers and giving out leaflets.

The New Life Community Church provide the foodbank service to help those in need.

The first 45 minutes the trolley for donations was empty, it was a sorry sight.

All of a sudden the customers who had taken a leaflet from us on their way in, were finishing their shopping with items to donate to the charity. We couldn't believe the generosity of Morrisons customers, I think it did help that Dawn knew half the people going in as she works at the store when she is not volunteering with GoodGym.

Shout out to Nick and Dawn both completing double tasks today after gardening in the sun this morning, standing in Morrisons foyer was very refreshing this afternoon. Weldone team.

5 fantastic GoodGymmers came help Braunstone Community Primary School create an allotment to grow fruits and vegetables. Back for the second week as there's so much hands on work to be done and the sun was shining.

Everyone got stuck in clearing out all the weeds and brambles, Nick and Stu had their hands full with the roots on one of the brambles, it looks more like a small tree!

Jimmy and Dawn cleared all around the pond, I had to warn Jimmy there was no swimming today.

Fantastic work team, your efforts are really appreciated and great to see you all, keeping fit whilst doing good.

6 super strong GoodGymmers came to get stuck in at Braunstone Community Primary School to help create an allotment of dreams.

The teachers plan to use the fantastic space they have to grow their own fruits and vegetables. The school have raised money to buy the polytunnel, which already had some hopeful seedlings planted by the children. They are even hoping to have a stall on the local market to raise funds for charity.

Fantastic turnout today, shout out to Gareth our newest member came back for his second helping of GoodGym.

This was a brand new task for us to work with after our friends at B-inspired Foodbank down the road from the school conveniently recommended us.

Everyone got stuck in moving tables out of the overgrowth and then clearing out all the weeds and brambles. Lots of tree identification going on with a cherry tree, Hazel and gooseberry bush to work around.

Fantastic work team, when GoodGymmers get on board more hands always make for a lighter load, same again next week.

3 GoodGymmers helped support the Menphy's charity with their leafletting the local area close to their Charity shop on Latimer Street.

Stu ran to the task and by the looks of him when he arrived, very fast! Dawn walked to her lift to the task.

We were super speedy with terraced houses but did have quite a walk from the charity shop, covering over 3 miles in total, fantastic efforts both pleased you could join in today.

7 Goodgymmers went to lend a hand at Saffron Acres Allotments. Today's task was to a move a tarpaulin cover so that the lawn mower could squeeze down the isle. Second task was to weed around the hazel trees freeing them from being choked by brambles and hawthorn.

Both tasks were deffinatly a case of more hands make for a lighter load, with a fantastic turnout of 7 we were well on our way, with the first task taking only 10 mins. We were trimming away brambles in no time we had 3 full wheel barrows of spikey brambles, Dave did the honours of walking the plank into the compost bin.

Dave also did a spot of bird sound spotting with his special app that tells you the birds it can hear in the area, among the birds were European Greenfinch, Carrion crow and Chiffchaff.

After the task we walked around Aylestone recreation park to check out their newish gym equipment

Mel and Dave off to London to support their son running the marathon for Bliss baby loss charity, Nick is joining the GoodGym support crew along with Ashley.

Fantastic work team, love the variety at Saffron Acres we never know what we will be up to next and nice to see blossom and bluebells this time, we'll be back again soon.

Goodgymmers took part in the Great British Spring clean today starting from Leicester City Centre walking towards the King Power stadium, where GoodGymmers Stu and Jimmy took part in the Loros 5k King Power run. Jimmy had already cycled to town and Stu had already run a 5K, they were on top form today!

Whilst the runners completed approx 1km laps of King Power the rest of us litterpicked down the canal as there was zero rubbish around the run.

Weldone GoodGymmers, nice to enjoy a walk/run in the sunshine collecting 2 full bags of grot along the way.
