On a very busy Saturday evening shift GoodGym athletes Rob, Steven and Meyrick put in a sterling effort to help marshall at the Pavilions.

Today was dedicated to people receiving vaccine number two and the queue was non stop. The venue were, as always, very welcoming and grateful for our help and made sure we knew exactly what was required of us.

To help keep us on the ball the staff manager ensured we were adequately rotated from task to task, from monitoring all exits to sanitising seating where used. Everything we needed to do carry out or duties was on hand and in abundant supply.

With the leisure centre now open regular punters are using the car park as well so the pay and display was back in action. In order to allow people attending a vaccine appointment to park for free there was a new process for inputting car registration details upon entry to allow them a free hours parking.

The late shift also incorporates those with no pre booked appointments who are called by the doctors on the day to attend at short notice in order that as many vaccines can be used on the day to avoid waste.

All in all a very successful day assisting this monumental vaccination program, congrats to all involved.
