A lovely evening for a litter picking task to help out at one of the Colchester Borough Homes residences. We were also tasked with clearing sticks and twigs from the paths to help remove trip hazards for the residents. We managed to avoid the scattered rain showers thankfully and our four GoodGymers did a great job for which Linda at CBH was very thankful. It was also a chance to celebrate Frazer's fantastic achievement at the Paris marathon where he clocked in just under 4 hours! Well done Frazer!

A lovely sunny evening for seven GoodGymers to support Colchester in Bloom by helping out at the allotment. This session focused on clearing out the greenhouses and tackling the overgrown beds through digging and weeding.

We were delighted to welcome a new member, Madeleine, to the group. Maddie got stuck straight in to the digging and weeding!

With a strong team effort, we made great progress, much to the delight of Pam from Colchester in Bloom, who was thoroughly impressed with how much we managed to achieve in one evening.

We’re already looking forward to returning to the allotment soon to continue the good work!

A pleasant warm evening, though still a little deceptively chilly, bought 5 Goodgymmers together in town for a good old fashioned litter picking. In a familiar route we snapped up the usual gallery of cigarette butts, drinks bottles and tissues. There was also a plastic lump we declared as likely not Roman era, plus a metal rack Louise insisted on calling a weapon.

Much litter collected in all, plus some nice chat and much to look forward to in the coming months, thats what Tuesdays are all about!
