Following on from Wednesday's unexpected return to the Crisis at Christmas warehouse, Friday evening's team comprised of a hard working bunch mainly from Newham and Tower Hamlets, but we also welcomed Chris from Southwark, venturing East for his second GoodGym outing. We continued with the task of getting all that remains in the warehouse stacked neatly on to pallets or into cages, clingfilmed up for transport into Crisis' permanent storage. It'll all come out again next year and another group of volunteers will have the (un?)enviable task of working out how everything has been thoroughly categorised and counted.

Enjoying a big turnout, we were able to get a bit more done than Taidgh from Crisis had anticipated, so having cleared bays 5 and 6, sorted out the sofas and chairs in another area, we made a beeline for the pub. There is, however, still a bit more to do! Sessions are up for Wednesday and Friday next week, so hope to see some of you there again.
