Four Good Gymers supported Green Hearts to clear weeds and brambles from overgrown allotment spaces for those waiting to grow their own veg. There was a significant amount of overgrown brambles and by clearing these it will help the reduction of allotment waiting lists in Norwich.

I used my lunch break today to help Mr P to get some of his garden clearer. He’s had distance sight loss so is unable to do this himself now. I helped by clearing a garden bed, trimming back over hanging roses from the path, trimming a small hedge and removing grass from the path to the front door.

Today 14 GoodGymers headed to Mousehold Heath for some conservation work improving the biodiversity in this area.

Shout Outs to Piers attending his first task, and Sarah for completing her 50th Good Deed.

We were clearing the slopes on St James Hill of a Broom plant, similar to gorse. Thus opening up more sledging routes in this popular spot on snow days!

After an hour the area had been cleared and the piles of shrub were carried up the hill and out the way.

We refreshed ourselves with hot drinks and biscuits by the coffee van. Well done team!
