It might be a rainy day, but that didn't stop 17 GoodGymer's arriving at Norwich Foodbank.

Norwich foodbank supports local individuals and families through the provision of emergency food supplies. Nutritionally balanced emergency foodboxes can cover an individual or family’s basic needs for 72 hours: the critical time gap before other support services kick in.

Tonight there were a range of tasks. - Unpacking and organising cartons of milk, hot dogs & 'Savers' tomatoes into crakes. - Labelling and moving crates around the warehouse. - Checking dates and weighing items ready to be packed into food parcels.

Always a popular task, and great to see the 'before' and 'after' amounts achieved in an hour! Shout out to Robert for completing his first GoodGym session!

Good news - we will be returning again next month for more warehouse Jenga.

On a sunny Saturday morning 8 Goodgymers helped the Friends of James Stuart Garden to prepare to welcome new visitors as the greenspace opens its doors as part of Norwich Community Garden Festival. We cleared some weeds to make space for some new planting and removed some brambles that were starting to creep in. We were also treated to a cuppa and a biscuit after our digging efforts.

Tonight we returned to Alfred Nichols Court, running 6km for an Easter Quiz!

This session was organsied as a way to bring local residents together in the communal hall, which is often unused.

The 7 GoodGymer's and 10 residents split into 3 teams to test knowledge of history, Easter facts, pictures & music trivia. We stopped half way to share refreshments provided by Norwich City Council.

The winning team named 'Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived' took the prize of Easter Eggs & Malteaser's!

It was a really fun evening, with residents already looking forward to having us back.
