4 glorious Good Gymers and an honorary GG doggie called Wookie found their way to a memorial wood, which had been planted on University premises at Kimberlow Hill. Sadly the biodegradable tree guards had started to wilt & fall apart. The trees were in need of some care & attention. So the joint Good Gym and Treemendous volunteers set to, recovering guards, hammering stakes, straightening saplings, removing competition (grasses mainly) and re-using some old plastic guards to protect the young trees from pests (rabbits mainly on this site). 4 big bags of biodegradable guards & waste were removed from the site. We left the skylarks to their trilling, the trees to continue growing and the butterflies enjoying the full sunshine. Another successful mission accomplished. (* OK so it's a dreadful cockney rhyming slang pun....)

Trees are good for everyone and they need your care. (You’re welcome to join for an hour or more!)

Six Goodgymmers had a lovely morning at Acomb Community Clothes Swap, providing a bit of extra help at this fabulous community event.
Our main task was to keep the racks full of clothes and make sure everything stayed tidy - while having the occasional cup of tea and nosy around for some new (old) clothes.
It was great to meet new Goodgymmer Sophie, who really enjoyed helping at the event.
It was a bonus to get some new items for my wardrobe!
Becca and Antonia upped their sartorial skills, learning a fancy new way to put jeans on a hanger and expertly arranging the children's clothes rack, which promptly fell apart... only to be given a classic Goodgym fix by James, who cunningly tied it back together with a tie from menswear.
Tay found what would have been the perfect pair of red trousers... if they had been several feet shorter.
Once things got a bit quieter, we had a last look over the clothes before heading off to enjoy the rest of (what I can only assume would be) our extremely stylish weekends!
