Tonight we were with the YMCA in what was a great and fulfilling task.

We started with a tiny run through the city to Sidwell Community Centre, where we met Si, the joint chief exec of YMCA Exeter.

They have set up 26 studio flats for young people to use, and we were there to help with the furnishings. We carried up all the mattresses and fixings and put together a few bedside tables - covering over 3 miles of walking and 350 feet of stairs each!

Its was wonderful to be part of such an amazing project, the accommodation looks fantastic. We're back with them again next Tuesday to build more furniture!
