We had a great turnout for an evening of bracken pulling at Mousehold Heath.

It was a shock (but a very pleasant one) to see the return of Panda Dave, who was actually completing his 50th GoodGym deed!

Will the Warden took us to an area of the heath where the evasive bracken was preventing the heather from thriving. So our task was to clear as much bracken as possible, to allow the heather to breath and flower.

It never ceases to amaze me how much the team get done. We transformed the area we were working in.

Leo and Emrys (the GG Norwich mascots) also enjoyed the evening.

The star of the show and centre of attention was Leo, the new GoodGym Norwich puppy mascot.

We visited the ever popular Mousehold Heath to start the summer task of pulling up bracken, to help conserve the heathland.

Thank you to Bill and Katy for bringing along some fresh homegrown strawberries.

The goal was to mow the lawns and clear some space for Mr S to enjoy. Unfortunately, the weather had other plans, and due to rain it wasn't possible to mow. However, armed with only a rake and hedge clippers, the garden's had a good clear back and much of the lawn was trimmed down and raked to make it more useable. It'll be ready for mowing when things dry.
