PĂ©-tank-que very much!

Norwich Report written by Ian Gostling

Tonight 13 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 6km to Eaton Park in the sunshine.

At the task we met Helen and Linda from the Friends of Eaton Park, who gave out tools to help tidy up the pétanque pitch.

We used trowels and delicate fingers to pull up any weeds, being careful not to tear or pierce the underlying mesh lining. After filling a wheelborrow full of weeds, we used rakes and brushes to level out the gravel.

High Five's to Tom who joined us on his first Good Deed!

After a swift 30mins the pitch was looking in a much better shape. Helen thanked us for our efforts and told us about many exciting events taking place in the park over the summer, such as bands playing, wildlife talks and late licence opening hours of the cafe! Take a look on their website & socials for more info!

Raising the bed: A Soil-id Shovelling Success

Norwich Report written by Eloise

On a somewhat grey summer evening, 11 GoodGymers braved the clouds and ran and cycled to Burges Road in Mile X to continue working on the wonderful community garden.

Our main mission was to conquer a mountain of soil in a neighbouring plot. Equipped with shovels, wheelbarrows and rakes, the team worked diligently, rotating roles to move the soil into the garden and distribute it strategically to create the foundation of a lovely large raised bed at the heart of the garden.

In addition to team soil shifting, Jonathan focused on propagating strawberries and digging up invasive nettles. The team also moved large logs to clear the space where we uncovered a fabulous frog!

The mission was made even more special as we welcomed Liz to GoodGym and Stephen celebrated his 25th good deed!

An extraordinary display of teamwork and determination and a testament to what we can achieve in a short time 💪🏻

Food Glorious Food

Norwich Report written by Emily

20 of us turned up to help Keith at the Norwich Foodbank. Robert led the runners from the Forum, and we welcomed one new GoodGymer, Diana.

We quickly got to work – Keith sent some of us over to the other side of the warehouse, while Bill, our very own GoodGymer who also regularly volunteers at the foodbank, managed those of us that were sorting donations.

We sorted hundreds of tins of beans, spaghetti, vegetables and more, and we only had two spillages!

Time went by so fast. Its such a satisfying task getting everything in order, knowing that we’re playing a part in helping people get healthy, satisfying food – with a few treats thrown in, of course! Rachel even said that she wishes her day job was more like this as you really feel like you’ve accomplished something.

After just 45 minutes we’d achieved so much. Keith thanked us for our help – the donations we were sorting were bought by the Trussel Trust with financial donations, as they’ve seen a drop in physical donations at supermarkets.

After a few group photos, we all departed knowing we’d all done a good job!
