We ventured to a different part of the globe tonight - our first task at Globe Place in Norwich.
8 GoodGymer's walked and cycled to an area in the housing estate that had become very overgrown. Stephen, Sharon & Dawn from LTC Green Spacesmet us with a list of tasks and lots of tools.
We spread out into 2 areas, lopping, chopping, sweeping & scooping, filling wheelbarrows and trugs full of dried branches & weeds. The wheelbarrows were then taken to nearby Somerleyton Gardens (another popular GG task venue) where they will be used as mulch for some large raised beds.
Whilst this was all happening, Rose wandered back and forth carrying watering cans around the site giving everything a good soak... that was a lot of steps well done!
Shout out to Beth for attending her first session! An hour flew by and the difference we made was Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Thanks Woody for tonights pun!

Tonight was our first time visiting Frere Road Community Centre. After a 5km run or walk to the venue we met Claire who had all the tools ready.
The main task was covering the outside wall in 'Brilliant White' paint! It had already been prepared for us - thank you - with weeds cleared and paint dusted, so we could get stuck in straight away.
In an hour the 5 of us covered approx 10m, with rollers, ladders and brushes, making sure the bricks were covered evenly. Eloise also managed to cut back a tall bush at the front if the building to reveal a lovely canary murial.
The transformation was brilliant indeed! We hope to return for more painting very soon - there is plenty more to do.
