Steph Ducat, Sevan and Kash ran like the wind from their first earthy session of the day at Canonbury Square to Ms P who was visited by two GoodGymers last month.

Ms P tasked the trio with making more space in the garage she rented to store her, her ex-partner's and her late mum's belongings while she was preparing to move to her new accommodation. The reorganisation became more urgent as Ms P had to leave the old property soon. The GoodGymers first pulled the not-so-neatly arranged boxes and unstructured bags outside the garage and repacked the non-stackable containers (cue: bags of wool or fabrics) into cardboard boxes they had been relentlessly assembling in the wind.

While Steph worked at the back of the garage to arrange already packed boxes into categories: books, crafts, wool, etc. and separate the sturdy from the fragile items, Sevan has been collecting sets of wellies, kitchenware, DIY items, and random uncategorised stuff. Kash utilised her ample warehouse experience to build boxes to store wool: strong outside and soft and fluffy inside.

As an hour passed, the GoodGymers, instead of winding down, reached the high-water mark of the task and rolled straight into their next task for Ms P.
