The ‘Branch Manager’
9 GoodGymers made their way 4.7km to help the Mousehold Heath in Norwich.

This morning's task was another visit to Mousehold Heath but on this occasion we visited an area of the heath that we hadn't visited before.
Myself and Nicole made our way there from The Forum, while the others met us at the heath, some of whom had completed parkrun.
Nigel greeted us and explained the task ahead, which was to trim the bottom parts of the trees beside the car park. This was to help the tree health and to keep the park exposed from the car park.
The loppers came out and we didn't hang about in getting on with the task.
Beks' doggo Emrys was assisting in collecting up the sticks and branches, so much so that he was trying to grab the branches from Nicole.
I had a slight awkward moment (aside from standing in dog p00) when a dog ran towards me so I got my camera out and said "come here Emrys" and started taking photos of it. A man was walking over while looking at my weirdly followed by Beks telling me "that's not Emrys"... oops.
We got loads done and Nigel was rather impressed when he came back over 30 mins later.
Well done to all 9 GoodGymers who were able to make it, a job well done.
