Well done to the GoodGymers who turned out on Mousehold Heath to continue with the Conservation work there. It really is a place of joy.

Bill & Katy discovered a coffee van afterwards, which we'll be sure to visit next time.

We had a last minute change of task but it still an amazing evening.

Thanks to Rose for coming up with the idea and Beks for accommodating us.

20 of us (plus some extra locals) visited Wild Lakenham to help clear and cut back an overgrown public pathway.

Tonight 20 Goodgymer's (and 1 dog) ran or cycled 6km to Mousehold Heath.

We continued the work being done to improve the biodiversity of the heathland, by pulling up bracken to allow the heather to flourish underneath.

Always a popular task, and our second visit this summer, we covered a different area on the eastern side of the heath. Within an hour there was a large wide area that had been cleared, with all the bracken piled up and moved with pitchforks.

On our way out of the heath, local warden Will showed us an area that had been worked on over 3 years, and is now covered in a beautifully vibrant purple heather.

Tonight 18 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 6km to Mousehold Heath.

We returned to this 140 acre heathland to continue the conservation work improving the biodiversity of this historical part of Norwich.

Armed with gloves and forks we cleared two large areas of bracken, allowing the underlying heather and grass to continue to grow.

Kudos to Ed and Ana who completed their first good deeds, and a BIG shout out to Sarah for her 50th good deed tonight!

Despite the summer rain, we ended the evening with a picnic in the nearby bandstand for more 7th birthday celebrations of GoodGym Norwich!

#490 Catton Parkrun saw myself putting on the blue hi viz as Parkwalker. We have a number of people who Parkwalk & many wear the blue Parkwalker t shirts. It’s very important to advocate this side of Parkrun, it’s getting out into this park for companionship, mental health , exercise. Running/walking today in Goodgym colours were Bobby, Rob R, Roisin , Alina, Maddy, Kathryn & Nicole, Well done everyone.
