4 GoodGymers met at the FoodBank and after a brief chat set to work cleaning it up. It was great to meet Sheila who left the carpeted area looking much cleaner and Nathan who made short work of the sweeping alongside Ray. Within an hour the whole massive warehouse had been swept and mopped and surfaces around the front of house area wiped down.

We will be back at the FoodBank on the first Tuesday of May so join us if you can!

1 GoodGymer swept the floor at the FoodBank.

If you're reading this and are able to help out please sign up for the next time we're cleaning there on Tuesday 7th April as with a bigger group of us we can have so much more impact on the large warehouse which is used to feed hungry people in Colchester and the surrounding area.

4 GoodGymers met one wet and chilly Tuesday evening to clean the Foodbank.

The outdoor weather was soon forgotten though as we warmed up working together to sweep the huge warehouse floor.

Keely and Henry then beautified the admin and front of house areas, cleaning surfaces and vacuuming the carpet while Louise and Mzi got to work with the mops.

We'll be back again first Tuesday in March!

On a cold wet January evening 1 GoodGymer turned up to help clean the FoodBank. It felt a daunting task, but with a "Summer Party" playlist (Spotify's suggestion) an hour of sweeping and spot cleaning with the mop passed very quickly. Many thanks to Ricky Martin, Lou Bega and Bananarama for all the motivation!

We're back at the FoodBank first Tuesday of February, hopefully with a bigger team, so we can make sure we clean the whole place to make it nicer for all those hero's who look after those in need each day.

Tonight, 5 GoodGym Colchester volunteers got fit while doing good at Colchester Foodbank 💪❤️

The team headed out for an active session with a purpose, combining movement with meaningful community support. Once at the foodbank, everyone got stuck in with essential tasks that help keep this vital service running smoothly. Thanks to the volunteers’ energy and teamwork, the foodbank was left in a better position to continue supporting people in need across Colchester.

It was a great example of how a short burst of physical activity can make a real difference locally. High spirits, plenty of teamwork, and the satisfaction of helping others made this a rewarding session for all involved.

Huge thanks to the 5 participants who showed up, worked hard, and proved once again that GoodGym is all about fitness with a purpose. Great work, team! 👏🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

6 GoodGymers met on a mild (unless you're from a hot country....) November evening to sweep, mop, vacuum and wipe down the Colchester FoodBank.

It was lovely to meet Mzi and Hamza for the first time who both got stuck in straight away sweeping and mopping.

The FoodBank was soon much cleaner than it started and we left satisfied with a good job done!
