7 Westminster GoodGymers ran 6k to help St Andrews Youth Club clear and dust 2 very cluttered storage areas!

Thanks for coming along on our trip to the a Westminster treasure the Oldest Youth Club in the World, St Andrews.

A pretty direct 2.5k route South weaving through the foot traffic of Central London. Where we met Adrian at the hive of youth action, St Andrews.

With a new area to tackle this visit we were had to remove, de clutter, re arrange and clear years of dust!

With space at a premium we got going with some great daisy chain team works to clear the two areas. With boxes, cabinets, light shades, flower arrangement holders, China cats, and 50 Easter baskets all taken out the area could be cleaned , swept and mopped!

Lots of dust and rubbish removed, the cleaning supplies re ordered and we were away!

Taking the longer loop back with a detour around St James’s Park we powered back to base notching up a top 6k of running and even time to nab a group picture in the New Balance photo booth!!

See you next time when we go to help Open Age Charity who provide social and physical activities for the over 50’s.

Have a great week

Joel
