Lil and Anne got stuck in steaming clothes whilst Nigel, James, Laura and I moved furniture and washed windows.

Last night we went to the Coventry Vision Hub to help with various tasks. James and Lee (on his first session) washed the windows. Suzanne hoovered and then helped Lil and Laura with the clothes steaming. And Manjit cleaned the carpets. A great evening was had by all!

Today’s task involved jazzing up the garden for the Blind Centre's summer bash!

Our first mission? A hunt in the loft for bunting to drape over the front sign and transform the backyard into an English garden party.

We arranged some chairs and tables, laid out the table mats, and discovered a hidden talent for flower arranging using the flora and fauna right from the garden.

Well done team! Now let the party commence :)

Today was a good team building task helping out our mates at the Blind Centre. We constructed two gazebos for their Earlsdon festival sale to house the stalls.

We also cleared out the charity shed, hauling heavy boxes of books, DVD's and bric-a-brac for the stands.

A fantastic work out, we flexed our muscles and watched the project come together from start to finish. Lets hope they raised lots of money today!

Great work guys :)

This valentines day we joined the Blind Centre again for their weekly walk around the Memorial Park.

This week we were partnered with different people to either guide or keep them company and it was good to get to know other people.

The weather wasn't quite as nice as last week and we were hit with a little downpour but thankfully it didn't last long. Everyone was walking at different paces but we all knew to head for the Memorial Cafe for a yummy hot drink. Once we were warmed up a bit the volunteers led everyone back to the Centre. A thoroughly enjoyable morning!

What a beautiful fresh morning for a walk around the memorial park!

A big welcome to Beverley who came along, it was so good to meet you!

Our walk started from the Coventry Resource Centre for the Blind where we were introduced to other volunteers, guide dogs and the walk participants.

James, Bev and Laura were asked to assist a lady called Pinkie who is partially sighted and it was such a pleasure.

The group all walked at different paces but the group leaders, Chris and Pete did a grand job of checking in to make sure everyone was alright.

Great to mix with some new people and have a laugh all while keeping fit and doing good at the same time.

Loved it and looking forward to the next walk!
