A new scheme for our GoodGymers this week, we made our way to Colchester Borough Homes residencies in Five Fields Court where were met by Steve who had already begun the weeding! Out three GoodGymers got to work weeding the paved areas out front, the before and after photos show our efforts and it was nice to see such a difference. We had quite a lot of attention from locals too who were intrigued with what we were doing - always happy for more potential members!

Well done team!

7 fantastic Goodgymers cleaned up the greenery around the flats, paths and businesses in Colchester.

Heading down the hill from The Mercury Theatre, through St Mary's Fields and along Sheepen Road, the team accumulated a three bag haul of litter. The usual suspects included Starbucks, Cadbury's, Nestlé, Walkers and Subway.

On that journey we passed four easily accessible bins - if only people used them!

Great job everyone and enjoy the rest of your week.

Our litterpick consisted of wandering down to the park and down by the river where we found various items including remnants of a plastic Christmas tree! Our interesting spot was a river rat who seemed to be enjoying its time sniffing for food along the riverbank, unbothered by ducks or pigeons.

Well done all, we finished in time to make it back for the second half of the women's Euros semi-final against Italy, another thrilling come-back and worth the late night!

Hope to see you all soon. Ella

The clouds were threatening rain but luckily didn't let loose during GG time! A new CBH location The clouds were threatening rain but luckily didn't let loose during GG time! A new CBH location for us at GoodGym Colchester. We spent a productive 45 minutes picking litter from hedges, garden and the car park at Grymes Dyke Court and managed to get a fair haul.

Shout out to the residents for being very welcoming and grateful and providing us with non-alcoholic Pimms refreshment (with a top secret ingredient) after the task! We will be back!
