This evening 6 GG members met up at the RSPCA to help decorate the welfare facilities for the staff members who work there.

Wayne got there a little early and had time to do a 5k run. Anne arrived shorty after followed by Kirsty & Rosie, & Julie Lauren was going to join us after her gym class. Before we headed to reception we did a gentle jog along the entrance road just to get warmed up as it was a little nippy. 🥶 We then made our way to reception where we met Claude who works at the RSPCA. She showed us the two WC's and the corridor that needed painting. All the paint, brushes, and dust sheets were provided.

We split up into two groups Anne Julie & Rosie Started to prep one room while Wayne & Kirsty started the other. We were joined by a very curious feline friend the RSPCA's resident 12 year old cat named Primrose. 🐱 Lauren joined us shortly after and got stuck in straight away she has a master roller user while Kirsty and Wayne did the cutting in. The girls next door were also making quick work of it, Anne being very meticulous with the brush. With all the recent painting tasks Goodgym have been doing recently Kirsty is so confident with her painting skills that she now feels shes up to decorating her house 😬.

After an hour we had pretty much done Wayne was so engrossed in the task that he forgot to open his fast which he did 30mins after the time with a twix.

We cleared up said good bye to Claude & Primrose as we went through reception we all started to look at the animals pictures that needed homes, "Could be some takers"

We will be back to finish up and start on the corridor once Claude confirms dates.

Well done everyone you all were amazing. 😄

Did I say I think I can redecorate my house 🙀 that’s the confidence of Good Gym Woking inspires… I think I could tackle the skirting boards in my living room. Not sure I could decorate the house though 😹
