Not even the rain could stop this brilliant bunch from getting stuck in at Saffron Acres today! Armed with gloves, loppers, and determination, half of us took on the tangled brambles and helped clear the way for the community space, the other half chopped the brambles ready for composting.
A big shoutout to Dave for keeping his word and sorting out the broken tap on the water butt, Saffron really appreciated it. Great job, Dave!
Also for Mo, who’s just completed his third good deed, clocking in an impressive 9km run. Keep up the efforts Mo!
As a well earned reward, we did a bit of foraging and came away with some tasty autumn treats 🍎🍏 nature’s way of saying thanks.
Weldone everyone we really made a difference yet again and the rain didn't stop play.

Six superstar GoodGymmers hit the Age UK Superstore in Leicester this week, ready to roll up their sleeves for another productive morning of volunteering.
Our tasks? Sorting play pens of tops into short sleeve and long sleeve piles and untangling a jungle of hangers, complete with size cubes. Precision, patience, and plenty of laughter got the job done.
A good catch up for everyone, lots of stories of the Equinox24 a 24hr trail race, from midnight Mel marshalling duties soaked in rain and windswept to Stu's amazing milestone of hitting 60k over six laps, he was well prepared with 1000 miles of training.
A massive well done team, everyone got stuck in as always more hands making a lighter load. Age UK are always full of praise for the difference we make. From sorting sleeves to swapping stories, we proved once again that teamwork makes the dream work!

We participated in donating to a local charity shop day. I delivered a bag of goodies to my village shop Dove Cottage Hospice. It’s good to have a rummage in the shop too as I can always find something I need.

Goodgymmers Nick, Dawn, and Sarah made the most of a bright, sunny morning with another productive session of bramble bashing at one of our fave's Saffron Acres.
The team tackled the heaps of brambles with enthusiasm, helping to tidy up the area for new composting pen.
While working hard, there was plenty of chatter and laughter, making the session as social as it was productive.
To top things off, the team left with a healthy haul of apples, carefully selected to avoid the ones already claimed by some tiny creatures!
Another rewarding morning spent doing good, getting active, and enjoying the sunshine.
