6 Goodgymers ran from CBGC to Clothing Coventry in daylight, yippee!

One of our favourite places to help out as theres always stacks for us to do. Joanne welcomed us in, setting us to work on a couple of tasks where we split into 2 groups.

One was upstairs in the kids zone with a move around to make it a bit more organised. Deb, Lil and Laura D shifted some crates of toiletries that didn't belong up there to an area downstairs. This left some empty shelving which was moved to an area designated for toys. We stacked all the toys on the shelves which then made way for the crates of baby clothes. There was a-lot of moving things backwards and forwards but we managed it and the space was left much clearer. Lil did a little sweep and the end just to get rid of some dust.

Downstairs the other group were working on packing vintage apparel after Clothing Coventry's successful vintage sale. Laura, Nigel and Allan helped Joanne with packing all the vintage clothing away into vacuum bags to store for a later date.

With a bit of time to spare at the end we did a speedy hanging session and then it was time for us to depart.

We then took off back to base, with a quick cool down and chat about upcoming sessions and peoples plans over Easter.

Next week is Charter House which is only opening its doors on Saturday so will be great to see this development finally finished. Take a look and get yourself signed up!
