Tonight 9 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 4km to support St Matthew's Church. It was our first visit here, and the route included a jog up Gas Hill!

Once we arrived Reverend Patrick showed us the tools and asked if there were any 'Happy choppers'? Which at GoodGym the answer is always yes!

He directed us to the overgrown areas of the car park, and the borders in front of the church, and we got to work clearing weeds and brambles so that the entrance signs could be seen more clearly.

Also inside the church an Easter display needed dismantling, including a number of large stones to be carrier back into the garden. In no time at all, both tasks were completed with a sense of satisfaction comparing the before and after photos... We were also offered refreshments of tea & biscuits!

Shout outs to Francesca for completing her 10th task, and Emily reaching 100 Good Deeds!! Marvelous work everyone.

Tonight 5 GoodGymers returned to Catton Grove Community Centre.

We were tasked with planting various types of bulbs in the flower beds, so 4 of us got to work digging and planting, and even spaced some of the bulbs into a pretty “G” for “GoodGym” shape in the soil!

Another member removed moss and weeds from the patio outside the community centre entrance to freshen it up a bit.

The bulbs we planted last year had already bloomed and looked beautiful, so it will be great to return to see what tonight’s bulbs look like once they are in bloom too.
