It's official: we love swans! We had great fun feeding them around the city with family, friends or just individually. The rain didn't put us off fitting in little litter picks too.

Beaches, river banks, ponds & lakes were all cared for in January by Portsmouth GoodGym.

We went out with family, friends, in groups or as solitary litter-pickers.

Our area has healthier waterways and coasts as a result of our care.

Bravo Samantha for reaching 300 GoodGym good deeds, and it was great for Sam to achieve this with our Parkrun partners, as a Tailwalker at Whiteley Parkrun.

Val joined Sammy as Tailwalker, Andy arrived early to do Pre-event set-up before smashing a fast Parkrun time, while I marched around the 4 laps as a Parkwalker.

We had a nice coffee and cake to celebrate Sam's achievement before heading off to complete other GoodGym tasks.

We jumped at the chance to help dogs who are in the care of The Stubbington Ark animal charity and gladly donated a rainbow of towels.

We donated our unwanted bras to Against Cancer charity who will transform them into funds for vital research to beat cancer.
