This was another first for GoodGym Liverpool as it was our first Community Mission and eight intrepid runners turned up the Kensington Community Learning Centre and finished off a paint job, which we started on Monday night.

It was nice as people turned up from 5.00pm onwards as and when they could get there. It became clear that there were two different shades of magnolia as we started unwittingly using both shades in the same room. Who would ever have thought that there was more than one shade of magnolia?

After working out which one went in which room it was full steam ahead. We managed to finish off all three rooms, which we were asked to paint and Susie the manager was really happy with what we did. We had just enough paint and so it was another GoodGym good deed done and we are going to be asked back to do more for them in the future.

Thanks go to Char, Emma, John, Eimear, Christine, Sophie, Mat and Pauline.
