Two GoodGymers leafleted for Heaton Pride in Heaton. This was our third task leafleting for Heaton Pride and the last of our leaflets. We need to get them out sharpish before the first event at 8pm that evening!

Luckily the streets in Heaton are long terraces so we managed to get hundreds of leaflets delivered within an hour allowing us to post a total of around 1,500 this week!

Anji completed three good deeds in one! As well as delivering hundreds of leaflets she also rang a doorbell to tell a women she had left her house keys in the front door and helped direct me out of where I was parked after as I ended up a bit blocked in!

If you are around this weekend check out Heaton Pride! We are also doing a litter pick to help tidy up after the event on Monday with a cheeky social after at the tipsy toad.

The rain stopped just in time for four GoodGymers to head out towards Heaton from Stepney Bank Stables, armed with many hundreds of Heaton Pride leaflets, without getting wet.

The terraced streets of Heaton are perfect for delivering lots of leaflets quickly. The best part of 1,000 leaflets were delivered in an hour.

Please join Aimee to complete the job on Thursday.

On a balmy Monday evening six GoodGymers helped prepare Stepney Bank Stables for this weekend's Ouseburn Festival.

Louise undoubtedly worked the hardest, mopping the floor with cold water and no detergent. It did definitely look better afterwards than it did before! Scott rearranged the chaotic helmets, while put the dozens of pairs of boots into size order on their racks.

Meanwhile Eleanor, Aimee and Dan took the lead with transporting the horse-related books upstairs, then arranging them in a perfectly colour-coordinated way on the bookshelves.

Please visit the Ouseburn Festival at the weekend if you can, and we'll see you next Monday to pick up the litter that didn't end up in the local bins.

On a pleasant Saturday morning, three GoodGymers helped Newcastle Parks and Allotments with some weeding in Elswick Park, just managing to get finished before a little rain shower.

The before and after photographs tell their own story. The park rangers were particularly happy that the stone circle at the top of the steps was cleared of weeds.

Cups of tea were drunk before the park rangers moved onto their next task at Nunsmoor Park.

Please come and join us on Monday as we help prepare Stepney Bank Stables for the Ouseburn Festival.
