This evening we visited the tranquil Bowthorpe Community Gardens, on the warmest and sunniest evening of the year so far. It felt more like July than April.

Elizabeth T was joining us on her first led session, after making her debut on a community mission at the weekend.

We had a few tasks lined up. Elizabeth H and Woody were giving the benches a good scrub and clean. Sarah & Jenny were weeding the gravel areas. Elizabeth T and Stephen were doing some painting, while I was doing some watering.

It was a lovely bright and calm evening, we all had a great time.

Tonight was all about Alina, who was completing her 100th deed with GoodGym, what an achievement! Congratulations Alina.

The task tonight was our first ever visit to Magdalen Medical Practice, to give their garden a good clear over.

As you can see from the photos, the team of GoodGymers had to work had and did a grand job.

We visited Mousehold Heath again. A new task this time (before the Bracken pulling commences in the summer), which was pulling up self-seeded Birch trees amongst areas of the heath where they don't want then to be growing.

It sounds crazy but we must have pulled out well over 100 of them! They have been temporarily been replanted in another area of the heath before they find new homes.
