Carrying on from our record breaking January, we had an epic turn out of 34 amazing Britolians to this week’s GoodGym. We met at Vivo Gym, and after a briefing from Chris headed out through Castle Park, along the other railway path, and to the Foodbank at the Big Yellow Storage, where we met Andy. This week’s task was to sort all of the donated food from one of the storage rooms into separate categories, and then store them in another container so that they can be distributed to the foodbank’s and then on to the people who need the food. Everyone got stuck in, and there was a flurry of activity, moving crates of food across the corridors and sorting them all out. We managed to get everything done just in time, finishing off the last crate just in time. We got masses done – Andy said that this task would normally have taken them 5 weeks! It was an incredibly satisfying task.

With the task complete, and a selfie in the lift done, we headed back through St Philips and to end back at Vivo. Nice work all round everyone!
