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.

Eight fantastic Goodgymmers were game for a double session day with a Tiny Forest Planting Day at Willowbrook Park, Leicester along with Earthwatch.

"Tiny Forest brings the benefits of woodland right into the heart of our cities and urban spaces: connecting people with nature, helping to mitigate the impacts of climate change, as well as providing nature-rich habitat to support urban wildlife". Earthwatch

After a brief introduction and demo of tree planting the team were off and away planting tiny trees.

There were 200 trees for us to plant along with some local residents. 600 fill the area which a local school had been to help out.

Shout out to Dawn on her 10th GoodGym good deed, she's completed those quickly. Great having you on board and becoming a regular, everyone has really welcomed Dawn, she bakes the best cakes!

GoodGym Derby members Gwyn and Tracey joined us too. Good fun had by all on our second task of the day and Jimmy cycled all the way there! Super weldone everyone.

Ten amazing GoodGymmers made their way to one of our regular tasks at Mind Charity Warehouse. Only 3 members had not visited here before, there was enough of us to show them the ropes. We were also joined again by Gwyn and Tracey from GoodGym Derby, always a pleasure.

The clothes sorting side of the room Lisa who is a pro at tagging (she's done it that many times), plus Ashley and Dawn were busy clothes sorting, checking and tagging getting stuck in.

Meanwhile Jimmy and Stu were in their fave corner sorting cd's and dvd's, could only just see Jimmy's wave for all the donations they were sorting through.

Nick, Dan (must be his running rest day from a 50 mile week with a little race on Sunday), Tracey and Gwynn, were book sorting with one of the books called Chris? Any way I could hear them all laughing so it must have been an interesting read. All followed by a cup of tea, not the quality Dave usually makes us, but it was hot.

Weldone GoodGymmers another task where more hands made for lighter work your efforts in the busy warehouse are always appreciated by the staff.
