This week, 5 brilliant GoodGymmers rolled up their sleeves and teamed up with the Canal & River Trust to litter pick along the canal! Keeping our waterways clean and beautiful for everyone to enjoy.

Weldone to the crew for making a difference, one bag of litter at a time!

Four enthusiastic GoodGymmers helped lend a hand sorting clothes and accessories at Age UK.

Upon arrival, everyone got stuck straight into organising the rails, there were plenty of fun moments along the way:

• Lindsay took the practical route and tested a running belt to see if it passed both the waist fit and phone fit test (spoiler it did!).

• Stu added humour by trying on a dress and tie combo proving that style and sorting can go hand in hand. I always await the photos of Stu wearing what he's found, usually it's hats!

• Lynne's nails unintentionally matched the size 12 hanger cube, a moment of colour coordination we didn’t know we needed!

• Nick took on the role of chief photographer.

It was a great team effort with lots of laughs and genuine impact. As always, your support was warmly appreciated by the Age UK team. Weldone everyone.

Three GoodGymmers lent a helping hand at the Age UK Superstore. Stu took on shredding (that's a new one!) making light work of a pile of old paperwork, deffinatly a behind the scenes job.

Meanwhile, Jimmy and Lindsay were busy re-labelling and hanging clothes to help get stock ready for customers, a task they are both pro's at now.

Huge shout out to Jimmy who has reached an amazing 300 Good deeds! Weldone Jimmy!

With teamwork and I'm sure there was laughter, it was a productive morning supporting a great cause. Big thanks to the Age UK team for welcoming Goodgym Leicester.

7 GoodGymmers laced up their trainers and grabbed their litter pickers to tackle the towpath along the canal. In partnership with the Canal & River Trust, our mission was clear- to clean up the tow path keeping it spic and span for everyone to enjoy and help the environment.

From plastic bottles and cans to discarded wrappers and bottle tops, no piece of trash was too small to pick up. We filled 4 full bags of trash! A shout-out to our newest member, Gillian, who joined us for her first GoodGym task. Weldone for getting stuck right in, hope you enjoyed it!

On route Dawn placed one of the 'Random acts of knitting and crochet kindness' on a bench for someone to find and bring a smile to their face, weldone Dawn a lovely thing to do.

Weldone everyone fantastic efforts on a lovely sunny day see you again soon!

Well done, team - fantastic efforts today, four full bags of litter collected along the canal and Slater Street, that's less filling up the canal!

Armed with litter pickers, bags, hoops, and plenty of energy, five fantastic GoodGymmers set off down the canal path toward Slater Street (because let’s face it, there’s always a can or two waiting for us there). As expected, Slater Street didn’t disappoint - but neither did we.

With the sun beaming down and the conversations flowing, it was a perfect day for our task. After doing our good deed, we enjoyed a brisk walk back to base, feeling great about our efforts.

Great to see one of our newest members Julie again and hear about her past marathon successes after Sarah is still talking about London.

Special shout-out to Stu our walking inspiration who's aiming for an incredible 100 miles in May. He’s already clocked up 50 miles, and we’re only halfway through the month. Keep stepping, Stu, keep us updated!
