This week marked 8 years of GoodGym Norwich.

During those 8 years we have completed 8,411 good deeds by 469 different people, and have actively traveled nearly 155,000 km. 53 GoodGymers have completed 50x good deeds and 25 GoodGymers have completed 100x good deeds.

Tonight was also Stephen Knock's 50th good deed!!

Our task to Sue Lambert Trust was canceled last minute, so we did a bit of a littler pick around the Norwich Cathedral grounds, then nestled there for a picnic on a glorious summer evening.

Here's to the next 8 years!

A steamy evening saw an EPIC north walsham 5K and Goodgymers Tasha & myself marshalling along with Steve

There were only 4 of us (plus Leo), but we still managed to make a big impact and made the areas more accessible again.

We returned to Aslake Community Growers.

There were a few keys tasks to complete this evening.

• Bill, Stephen and Jonathan were digging to the base of green house 1. A very challenging task it was!
• Everyone else at the start moved lots of plant pots to allow for the hedge to be trimmed back.
• Elizabeth, Katy and Rose were snipping and bagging up previous sticks and brambles that we previously cut back.
• Myself, Jen and Maddy started to cut back the hedges.

Well done everyone, you put in a great shift.

It was another lovely summer evening at Marlpit Community Gardens.

The main take was to do some weeding around the vegetable patches.

We were kindly treated to some red lettuces.

Fellow GoodGymmers Elizabeth, Tasha, Bill, Katy and I helped with marshalling the EPIC 5k in Aylsham, which had a fantastic turnout. The runners all passed by very quickly, including one of our own GoodGymmers, another Elizabeth.

The star of the show and centre of attention was Leo, the new GoodGym Norwich puppy mascot.

We visited the ever popular Mousehold Heath to start the summer task of pulling up bracken, to help conserve the heathland.

Thank you to Bill and Katy for bringing along some fresh homegrown strawberries.

This evening was Elizabeth H's 700th GoodGym deed, what an incredible woman.

We visited Aslake Community Growers. One of the corners had been neglected, so our task was to start to clear it, with the main focus being removing the wire fencing and ivy.

The time went quick but we got a lot done. We finished the evening with some birthday cake.

Well done to the GoodGymers who helped cut and clear back at Catton Grove Community Centre.
