Four of us arrived at Frenford Food Bank to pick and pack another 40+ packages, making it over 80 families having help with their food supplies over the two sessions this weekend. Despite other helpers being thin on the ground at this session Good Gymmers really stepped up to the job picking, packing, loading up, and training newbies. During this time two trolley loads of donations and yet another massive delivery turned up the sorting and storing of which we took on without complaint…well OK maybe a couple of good natured grumbles 😁 The tiredness caused by the extra lifting and shifting was counteracted by the sense of self satisfaction at completing a difficult but worth while task. We done good people 💪🏻 👍🏻 😊
