Tonight 8 GoodGymer's joined 14 residents at Alfred Nichol Court for a Quiz Night!

While running 6km to the venue on a warm evening, we found a man lying on the floor, so we stopped to check he was ok and helped him onto his feet.

After arriving we split into 3 teams to test our knowledge of Geography, Cuisine, Famous Faces & Movie One-liners. Stopping for a break halfway for tea & biscuits.

Once the results were in, we announced the winning team - 'All the gear, no-eye-deer'! Taking home the winning prize, a scented candle!

It was a great evening bringing local residents together. Hopefully we will be back for another social evening in a few months time.

It was a tropical day in Norwich, and we had to switch tasks at the last minute!

Thankfully Wild Lakenham came to our rescue, meeting us at the top of Lakenham Way with litter pickers and bin bags.

From there, 4 GoodGymer's walked and talked the full length of the path - 3km in total. After 1 hour we had filled an extra large bag with various items of rubbish.

Shout out to Maria who attended her first group run, as a professional wrestler she had no trouble tackling any trash.

This morning 3 GoodGymer's headed out in the sunshine to Lionwood, a small woodland that is known locally for its bluebells in early spring.

Shout out to Rosie who joined us for her first session!

Once we arrived we met the Lionwood Conservation group to assist in removing an invasive plant, the Few-flowered Leek. This plant has spread rapidly in recent years and poses a severe ecological threat by carpeting the woodland floor and smothering native early-spring plants.

We used trowels to remove the bulbs, being careful not to spread little bulblets that could seed new flowers. A slightly tricky task, but we will hopefully see the benefits over time.

In just over an hour the GoodGymer's and Conservation group had made a real difference! We look forward to returning for more tasks in the future.
