Frog Standard

Monday 10th March

Written by Steven Hitcham

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.

Well done to Sam who was completing her 50th GoodGym deed!

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.

Allot(ment) got done

Monday 24th February

Written by Steven Hitcham

This evening we started a new project at Mousehold Allotments, where we started clearing an unused area, overgrown with brambles. This will eventually turned into a community garden area.

A massive cheer to Andy who completed his 100th good deed over the weekend!

Broomin’ Heck

Saturday 8th February

Written by Steven Hitcham

14 GoodGymers from Norwich got stuck in at Mousehold Heath to clear an area of Broom and Gorse.

The area we covered is normally clear from when it snows and its all pushed down from people sledging. Sadly as we haven't had any snow in Norwich for a few years, this has started to become overgrown.

It was one of Norwich's best locations, with a stunning view overlooking Norwich City Centre, as you can see from the photos.

Rule Britannia, GoodGymers Rule the Waves.

Saturday 18th January

Written by Steven Hitcham

This week's Group Run was based at Mousehold Heath, but at a different location and area of the heath to where we normally meet.

A large team of GoodGymers met Will the Warden at Britannia Road, in front of the Prison. The conservation work on this visit was all around that area, which has one of the best views overlooking Norwich City Centre.

We gave a big welcome to two new GoodGymers - Amy & Dan, who were taking part in their first (of hopefully many more) good deed with us.

After a morning of hard work, it was finished with a nice hot drink to warm the cockles.

Well done to the GoodGymers who turned out on Mousehold Heath to continue with the Conservation work there. It really is a place of joy.

Bill & Katy discovered a coffee van afterwards, which we'll be sure to visit next time.

Rainbow Friends 🌈

Monday 2nd September 2024

Written by Steven Hitcham

It was quite a spectacle at Mousehold Heath this evening as we were treated to a beautiful rainbow as we were about to take our group photo.

Jen and Bobby lead the run from The Forum with several others cycling too.

This was possibly our biggest turnout since post-covid, with 23 of us making an appearance.

It was the last bracken pulling session of the summer. Will met us with pitch forks (in a nice way) so we could pile up the pulled bracken... and there was a lot of it!

What a lovely evening with the sunset coming over as we finished up for the evening. A few people stopped at the pub on the way back to have a well deserved drink.
