On a bright evening, five runners met at the Forum and ran the two miles to Dell Rose Court old peoples home. Once we arrived, we started chatting to a couple of residents. Although the Easter quiz sheets were put out, it was decided that the residents weren’t quite feeling in the mood for the Easter quiz so instead we set about the gardening tasks in the enclosed courtyard. We spent the session watering the plants, doing some weeding and generally tidying and sprucing up the area for the residents to enjoy. After a short while more residents popped down and Maddy and Woody spent the remainder of the time in conversation with the residents making it a positive evening. Woody was especially helpful lending some DIY expertise in fixing a bird feeder. We left Dell Rose feeling that the evening was successful and that next time maybe we would get to do the quiz!!! A good run back in good spirits to the Forum was then had.

We visited Wensum Park again to continue the work we started last week.
We finished clearing the 12 star sign flower beds. Some needed old roots digging out, lavender cut back, stones removing and some just a complete turnover of the soil.
They are now pretty much ready to be planted.
Well done everyone, we'll have to return later in the year to see how it has flourished over the summer.

This evening 12 GoodGymers broke their Wensum Park virginity as we visited there for the first time.
Congratulations to Rose for completing her 100th GoodGym deed!
Also a big welcome to Josie who was partaking in her first good deed.
The task in hand was to dig over so unused flowerbeds so they can be planted with new flowers etc.
Each flower bed already has a different star sign stone in front of it, so the plan will be to full it with flowers that relate to each colour in relation to the star sign.

We returned to Mousehold Allotments to continue the work we started there a couple of weeks ago.
Firstly, we have a few mentions:
A big welcome to Vicky, who joined us for her first GoodGym task.

Congratulations to Woody who was completing his 100th GoodGym deed!!
The jobs this week set by Lizzie and Will were: 1) to lay down cardboard on the middle area. 2) load compost into a wheelbarrow 3) transport the compost and spread it over the card board 4) remove as many old ground sheets from the ground as possible
We discovered lots of little frogs in the grass areas, so were extra careful of those. It was great to see that none of us had a fear of frogs.
Everyone did a great job.
