Today 12 GoodGymers ran or cycled to support conservation work at Mousehold Heath.

We met Will at St James Hill on Britannia Road, an area of natural habitat for a rich variety of wildlife including Common Whitethroat - the only place in Norwich this species can be found.

We went to an overgrown area that had grown so high it obscured one of the finest views in the city.

Armed with loppers and saws, we spent an hour cutting everything back and carrying the long branches to a clearing below. It was amazing to see the results after we finished! Now anyone wanting to sit on the bench could see right across the entire city.

Shout Out to Alice who attended her first session.

High Five's for Eloise who completed her 50th Good Deed!

Tonight 16 GoodGymers ran or cycled to support East Anglia Children's Hospice in Plumstead Road.

We had extra lights and visibility while running to the task, as we were supporting This Girl Can's campaign #LetsLiftTheCurfew to raise awareness of womens safety exercising outdoors in the darker months.

At the store we were given plenty of tasks, cleaning shelves, taking down window displays, sorting out books / furniture and breaking down boxes. It was also a chance to hunt for some bargains when sorting through donations!

Hi Five to Maddy for reaching her 100th Good Deed!! In her words she 'joined GoodGym so she didn't have to run in the dark in winter on her own' - and that is why we are here!

Thanks everyone for making this community a safe and supportive place for all.

Thanks Woody for the pun!

Today 7 GoodGymers ran 4km join local residents and volunteers at Edmund Bacon Close.

The venue had been supplied with tools, bulbs and trees to be planted including Acers, Prurius, Viburnham and Jasmine. Thankfully the rain had stopped but the ground was soft so we got to work digging and planting in different areas of the grounds.

After an hour we had planted the trees and clusters of daffodills, snowdrops, bluebells and crocus.

We love forward to returning in the spring to see what has grown!

We celebrated the life of our dear Catton Parkrun family member Melissa Baker who last her battle with Cancer a few months ago. 374 people turned out on a rainy, cool morning to honour her memory with her daughter & her partner.
