Sale Rail time

Friday 19th December

Written by Nick Pryke

Five Goodgymmers visited the Leiceter AgeUK superstore to help with sorting their vast stock of clothing. This time it was marking down red bags of clothes for the sale rails. Most were already labelled so we quickly moved through filling a couple of rails. This was Sam's first Goodgym task - Welcome Sam and hope to see you again.

New Faces, Fresh Stock, and Full Rails at AgeUK Leicester!

Friday 24th October

Written by Nick Pryke

Three regular attendees were joined by two new members to help out at the big Leicester AgeUK shop. Regulars Lynn and Lindsey had brought some bags of donations so booked them in for GiftAid. New member Sam was using a community day off from work and had found us through Google - nice one Sam. Along with new member Pardeep they soon got into the swing of tagging and hanging many bags of clothes ready to go out onto the shop floor. Meanwhile Nick was asked to bag up a big pile of clothes that had come off the shopfloor. More clothes were appearing on the pile almost as fast as he could fill the bags. It's a big, busy, shop that gets through a lot of stock which they rotate round to keep it fresh The session was soon over and we had two full rails and a dozen newly filled bin bags of stock. All that was left to do was a quick look around the shop where one or more of us always finds something to buy.

Sleeve it to GoodGym!

Friday 26th September

Written by Sarah

Six superstar GoodGymmers hit the Age UK Superstore in Leicester this week, ready to roll up their sleeves for another productive morning of volunteering.

Our tasks? Sorting play pens of tops into short sleeve and long sleeve piles and untangling a jungle of hangers, complete with size cubes. Precision, patience, and plenty of laughter got the job done.

A good catch up for everyone, lots of stories of the Equinox24 a 24hr trail race, from midnight Mel marshalling duties soaked in rain and windswept to Stu's amazing milestone of hitting 60k over six laps, he was well prepared with 1000 miles of training.

A massive well done team, everyone got stuck in as always more hands making a lighter load. Age UK are always full of praise for the difference we make. From sorting sleeves to swapping stories, we proved once again that teamwork makes the dream work!
