9 GoodGymer's turned out for a great morning at Mousehold Heath.

Cutting back Common Gorse, which is an invasive species and has been strangling the heather that grows on the heath. The Heather is a great pollinator and is essential to bees and insects thriving.

The team removed lots of Gorse, with the aid of Will’s big protective gloves and long reaching loppers. After it was removed it was laid on drag mats and taken to a big hole not far away where it can mulch down.

Everyone was in great spirits and could see a massive impact for the hours work that it took of lopping and dragging.

We will be back again in a few weeks for another task in Mousehold.

It was a very windy morning, 7 GoodGymers ran or cycled 5km to Waterloo Park.

We joined the Friends of Waterloo Park volunteer group who meet every Saturday.

Todays task was clearing out weeds from the overgrown flower beds. After an hour it was a great to see the difference we made - check out the before and after photos!

We will be returning next month to help spread lots of wood chip. See you at the next one.

Tonight 14 GoodGymers ran 7km to Norwich Foodbank.

Shout Out to Amy & Sai who completed their first Good Deed tonight!

Warehouse manager Keith showed us the donations and gave instructions for tonights task - remove packaging, pack tins into crates, label and stack crates ready for distribution

After an hour the tins of carrots, potatoes, ham & mixed veg were piled high like a game of Tetris.

Then it was time to run / cycle back into Norwich.
