Our wonderful Amy is taking on more responsibility at the Stirchley Community Market and so she led us all in a team building task setting up a market stall to see how many pieces we had!!

Laura and Sofeen had put up the stall before so quickly took to assembling the pieces and showing us what to do. It felt like an escape room or crystal maze puzzle!! With Laura's memory and a sort of helpful photo Amy had - we managed to get it together! Abigail and Chris were excellent organisers, getting the pieces ready and coming up with solutions.

The hardest part of the day was putting the heavy metal pieces back quietly while a class was in session in the community centre! We also kept having the door closed on us. Quite the team building experience.

Srinivas joined us in Stirchley for the first time and did amazingly on our 3k run. Hope to see you again!!

Shout out to Veronika who cycled to the mission and then did a run with us! Duathlon vibes.

Another brilliant evening at St. Martin's Church, this time helping sort out the donations cupboard. With lots of generosity in the local community, the shelves, crates and racks benefit from regular organising, so we were glad to be of help!

It was great to welcome Veronika for her first task, waving down Eve on her run past, and finding some lovely storage for Christina's bike! Meanwhile Amy, Veronika and I represented the walkers of Goodgym on this warm night.

We sorted through the donations in a room down the hallway from their cupboard, with all sorts from hats and gloves, lots of socks, plenty of shoes, clothing and toiletries! Also a shoutout to Amy's homeware section, making sure any bedding, blankets etc. were nicely organised!

With some speedy labelling and clever stacking (especially the shoes!), we filled that cupboard back up with donations sorted by themes and sizes. The folding and lifting got our biceps going and the cupboard Tetris kept our brain juices flowing! Super fulfilling task and we are looking forward to next time.
