Today's mission was completed in just half an hour, with our team of five Goodgymmers and five St Joseph's Hospice staff members working together for a quick tidy up.

First we used the very convenient wheelie blue tubs to wheel 30 bags of remaining clothes & 40 boxes of CDs/books/games through the Hospice to their storage container, ready for the next jumble sale.

Then, all that was left to do was re-fill a couple of tubs with recycling and one with rubbish, also wheeled through the Hospice to the various categories of bins at the back. We broke down the boxes before recycling them, of course; we're not monsters.

At this task we had representation from 5 boroughs between the 5 of us, so it was great to see some new faces - including Sarah & Elena, who've both started Goodgym this week and already have 5 good deeds between them! 😊 Welcome to you both, and welcome back to Bethan for a cracking 2nd good deed
