A Sign of the GoodGym Stars

Monday 31st March

Written by Steven Hitcham

We visited Wensum Park again to continue the work we started last week.

We finished clearing the 12 star sign flower beds. Some needed old roots digging out, lavender cut back, stones removing and some just a complete turnover of the soil.

They are now pretty much ready to be planted.

Well done everyone, we'll have to return later in the year to see how it has flourished over the summer.

We Went Some to the Wensum

Monday 24th March

Try and read the title 5 times as quickly as you can

This evening 12 GoodGymers broke their Wensum Park virginity as we visited there for the first time.

Congratulations to Rose for completing her 100th GoodGym deed!

Also a big welcome to Josie who was partaking in her first good deed.

The task in hand was to dig over so unused flowerbeds so they can be planted with new flowers etc.

Each flower bed already has a different star sign stone in front of it, so the plan will be to full it with flowers that relate to each colour in relation to the star sign.

Have I Got News For You

Monday 27th January

Written by Steven Hitcham

We had the pleasure of having ITV News joining us to do some filming at our session tonight, which was as tidy up at Greenfields Community Centre.

With the strong Norfolk accents well prepared, a couple of us were also interviewed for the cameras.

I'm not sure when it'll be aired but I will keep you all updated.

We also welcomed Jack to GoodGym Norwich, he's done a few deeds at other GG locations but this was his 1st in Norwich.

The task this evening was to cut back a load of overgrown spiky bushes, to make the centre look more presentable.

It was a challenging task but the team really got stuck in and did an incredible job of completing the job in hand.

Shipping in the GoodGym goods

Monday 7th October 2024

Written by Steven Hitcham

We visited a site on Shipstone Road to help start a new community garden project.

Congratulations to Nicole for completing her 50th good deed!!!!

We made a great difference to the area - clearing an overgrown flower bed and clearing the pathways.

A local resident brought us out some chocolate at the end, which was an extremely kind gesture.
