Seven absolute legends braved a warm evening for a jog up the hill to the St Christopher's Hospice Charity Shop for a multitude of jobs. Shout out to Carina who joined us for her first GG good deed! ๐Ÿ“ฃ

We kicked off at the Bridge House chatting about ways to keep cool, from freezing your bed sheets to not moving... and then we ran! After a relaxed warm up in the park, we headed up through the centre, diverted by more festival fences... and made it to the shop to meet Teresa (and Kat who'd just given blood ๐Ÿ‘).


To help fund their amazing work, St Christopher's has a bunch of charity shops. It gets pretty busy in the summer with more customers and more donations coming in so we had plenty to do to get the shop ship-shape:

๐Ÿงฝ Catherine and Carina were dusting all the surfaces

๐Ÿงน Kat hoovered the floor

๐Ÿ’จ Stephen was steaming some clothes

๐Ÿ› Clare and Maxim were tidying out the back, getting all the bags of donations in the right places.

๐Ÿ‘š And I did some clothes tagging.

Teresa was sooo happy with what we managed to get done - a weight off her and her colleagues shoulders!

We took a quick snap with some of favourite finds from the shop and took a slightly longer route back, throwing in an occasional plank and jump squat for good measure.

Great stuff gang! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜…
