This week we had another big group out in force including 2 brand new members Hannah & Shan. A big welcome to you both!

Last night we headed back to Hestia for a second visit to finish what we started last week and help to give the whole place a good clean! With so many hands on board to help we split into 4 small teams across the whole site to wash down all the walls and doors with one team focusing on giving the kitchen a good spring (autumn) clean.

Our kitchen team created some happy vibes working away to the music while the others grafted away in the labyrinth of corridors around the rest of the building. Thank you this week to regular dogooder Michael who took our newcomers under his wing last night!

For the last 5 minutes we all gathered as a group on the central stairway to work as a team to get this final area scrubbed up nicely. Being such a well used part of the building it was definitely in need of some TLC and when we were finished you could really see the difference.

With a short run commute to the task again, we had plenty of time for a good fitness session back on Haven Green with oregon circuits and a sprinting game between two teams. In the end it was very close with Emily finishing just before Sam to bring her team to victory!

One last shoutout this week goes to Suganthinie who completed her first half marathon on Sunday and despite tired legs and the right to a well deserved rest came down tonight and still got stuck right in with the task and fitness session. Massive Kudos!

Thank you all for coming and a big thank you to the staff at the centre for having us, hopefully see you all again next time!
