On a sunny Saturday morning 8 Goodgymers helped the Friends of James Stuart Garden to prepare to welcome new visitors as the greenspace opens its doors as part of Norwich Community Garden Festival. We cleared some weeds to make space for some new planting and removed some brambles that were starting to creep in. We were also treated to a cuppa and a biscuit after our digging efforts.

Tonight we returned to Alfred Nichols Court, running 6km for an Easter Quiz!

This session was organsied as a way to bring local residents together in the communal hall, which is often unused.

The 7 GoodGymer's and 10 residents split into 3 teams to test knowledge of history, Easter facts, pictures & music trivia. We stopped half way to share refreshments provided by Norwich City Council.

The winning team named 'Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived' took the prize of Easter Eggs & Malteaser's!

It was a really fun evening, with residents already looking forward to having us back.

Tonight 10 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 6km to the Phoenix Community Centre.

It was a busy venue, we were working alongside kick boxing, drama classes and a choir rehearsal!

Our task was to continue painting the corridor, tidying up weeds and leaves and cleaning a children's play house outside.

We split into 2 groups to work indoors and out, whilst all the activities were taking place. In a hour, 4 walls were freshly painted and 3 bags of weeds were filled!

Shout out to Sai who attended her second task, in a smart new GoodGym t-shirt! Well done everyone.
