5 Coventry Goodgymers went to Clothing Coventry for our monthly sorting session. Our task for the evening was to move and sort boxes of clothes and shoes into different sizes so that they are ready for clients to collect. Well done everyone, we will be back at Clothing Coventry next month for more sorting fun!

On Saturday, seventh of February, I set off to Kersley Village to help out the Coventrians FC. Weather was grim at first, rain pelting down as I made way. Lucky for me, clouds cleared right when I arrived up at the football ground. Beautiful pitches, a bit waterlogged though—some games had been called off! I met up with Jane, John and the friendly dogs, energetic Lillie and Derek a bit older so not quite as spritely as Lillie! We started off with a coffee ☕️😍 before rolling up the sleeves to get stuck in. Today's job helping with the fencing which has taken a few months to do so far. John and I started loading out the fencing ready to be nailed on, and then Paul arrived and we cracked on to get quite a lot done, working well together. Between us three, the fencing job nearly completed and John was planning to finish the gate on Sunday. As well we had the fearless Lillie bounding around non-stop, dropping the ball for you to throw here there and everywhere—it was a joy to see. A good couple of hours work and the first task completed for Coventrians FC.
