Our initial plans for a pick at Whale Island this morning had to be amended due to our local Covid Regs, but always a group to find the positives we changed our mission to a virtual pick, so many more GoodGymmers got involved!

Val, Judy and GoodGym Mascot Tess had a lovely sunny and frosty morning walk, litter picking, along the beach from Nutbourne to Prinsted.

Catherine didn't find much litter around her new neck of the woods, but showed us a photo of a fisherman's Christmas tree!

Lynn also found a Community Christmas Tree local to her whilst she was out and about this morning.

Lots of other local beauty spots and beaches were covered in Portsmouth and Southsea, whilst Lou, Yvonne and Pip covered Stokes Bay over in Gosport.

As well as the usual cans, bottles and crisp packets, enough accessories were found to decorate a snowman! Hats, gloves, buttons, the works! Those out early had to battle against frozen litter and icy puddles.

We've had a big impact on the local environment today, well done everyone for keeping motivated together, even when we're apart.
