“Boxing Up Winter… One Hanger at a Time!” ❄️📦

Monday 16th March

Written by Jalal El Farmawi

Today a team of five GoodGym volunteers helped out at a clothing shop by preparing winter clothes for storage. We worked together to sort and pack the winter garments carefully into large boxes so they would be ready for storage. Along the way we also collected wooden and plastic hangers and packed them into boxes, helping to clear and organise the shop floor. It was a great team effort, with everyone pitching in to lift, sort, and pack. By the end of the session the space looked much tidier and more organised, and it was great to see how much we achieved together. Another productive mission completed by the GoodGym team! 💪

From Van to Table

Monday 16th March

Written by Jalal El Farmawi

Three GoodGym members joined today’s mission to support the local foodbank at the church. We helped unload crates from the foodbank van and carried them into the hall. We sorted the food into categories including vegetables, meat, chicken and fish, and prepared the food containers ready for distribution. We also arranged the tables and chairs so the hall was ready for people arriving to collect food. Finally, we returned the empty crates back to the foodbank van. A great team effort and everything was ready to welcome the community. 💪🍎

Small team, big help!”

Friday 13th March

Written by Jalal El Farmawi

Today the task was completed by just two of us from the GoodGym team – Jacqui and me. It was Jacqui’s first time at this location, so it was lovely to welcome her. We worked together to organise the space and get everything ready. First, we moved all the Food Bank boxes to their proper place. Then we returned the tables to where they belong in the hall. We also collected the empty crates and loaded them into the Food Bank vehicle. Finally, we arranged the chairs neatly in rows so the hall is ready for the next activity, as shown in the photos. A small team today, but we got the job done! 💪

Stocking up the foodbank

Thursday 12th March

Written by Jonathan (he/him)

Many hands made light work of the foodbank, enough time to sit down, have a cup of tea and sort out the problems of the world!

Thanks to everyone for their help today, I know the foodbank very much appreciates it!

Hanging Around 👗

Wednesday 11th March

Written by Cheski Kennedy (she/her)

Tonight's GoodGym group run at Bassuah Legacy Foundation was a blast! 🚀 This fantastic charity shop in our community does incredible work supporting single-parent families, and we love to lend a hand.

First off, huge welcome to Eli our newest group member, on her first outing with us 🎉! And great to see Chau rocking her new bright red GoodGym shirt!

We dived straight into action, tackling the shop's stockrooms and displays. Matt was our shoe whisperer, meticulously searching and pricing up footwear to ensure Tina, the lovely owner, gets the best price possible for her stock 💸. Meanwhile, the rest of us hung as many clothes as we could, though we did have a mini challenge tracking down enough hangers 😅 – it's like they vanish into thin air, right?

We also managed to help make a sale! Two DVDs found new homes - it's always a great feeling knowing our efforts are making a real difference to the shop and the community it supports.

Big thanks to everyone for their hard work and enthusiasm 💚

“Sorting Out Hunger!”

Tuesday 10th March

Written by Jalal El Farmawi

This morning the Foodbank delivery arrived and the boxes were placed in the hall. We started by arranging the tables and preparing the space for sorting. After that, we organised the food crates and distributed them across the tables in a clear and tidy way so everything could be sorted properly. The items were separated and placed into the correct crates to make the process easier and more efficient. It was a great and productive morning. There were three of us from the GoodGym team working together, and everything went smoothly thanks to good teamwork and cooperation. Thank you for the communication and support – it was great working together.
