Five of our lovely GoodGymers ran to help Gorse Hill Studios and Trafford Domestic Abuse Service to help with the next phase of the move for the service into their new home.

We met as usual at St Matthews Community Hall and chatted about our news for the week and got ourselves warmed up and ready for the run. As we were a small (yet perfectly formed) group we ran up to Gorse Hill Studios together putting the world to rights as we did so.

On our arrival we were met by the most delicious smells coming from the Care Leavers cookery class which set us all off drooling and wondering what was on the menu at our respective homes!

Caroline explained our task to us which was to help with the next phase of TDAS moving into some office space at GSH. (Eagle eyed regular readers may remember that the first task of 2020 for the GG TRafford team was to clear the office space and take apart some furniture). Imagine our excitement when we saw the transformation of the space since we had been there last....it looks amazing! It was really great to see the progression and to continue our support for both TDAS and Gorse Hill Studios.

While we were there we:

  • Emptied out filing cabinets
  • Shifted furniture around to make best use of the space
  • Tidied up the comprehensive stationery cupboard

Not bad going for a team of five! Once we'd completed our tasks we headed back home still wondering what was for tea! After a stretch off we headed our separate ways to find out!

Thanks for a great effort all and see you next time, Kate x
