weldone to everyone who brought along their unwanted donations to Age UK yesterday, all donations are always appreciated.

A team of seven enthusiastic GoodGymmers came together to lend a helping hand at the Age UK Superstore this week. The group was tasked with sorting through a large collection of CDs, DVDs, and books, helping to categorize them and prepare them for sale.

Mel, Lynn, Nick, and Stu focused on organizing and categorizing CDs and DVDs, while Dawn and Lindsay took charge of sorting books particularly in the history and cooking sections. Once sorted, items were neatly stacked to a 1 meter high shelf length, ready for display and pricing.

The task was a refreshing change from the usual clothes sorting, and everyone enjoyed the variety. There was a strong sense of achievement as the team reached their 1-meter stacking goal, demonstrating teamwork and efficiency.

A special shoutout to Stu, who is running the Shakespeare Half Marathon this weekend, best of luck! It was inspiring to hear about his training for an upcoming 24 hour event, walking an impressive 20 to 40 miles per week. And kudos to Mel, who has now completed five months of doing a 5K every single day!

A fantastic effort all around weldone team!

5 GoodGymmers helped restock the donated items, Mel and Dave had a lot of book sorting to do! weldone all

8 Super Goodgymmers helped sort, label, tag and hang at Age UK Superstore today, a fairly new charity shop in Leicester that we have supported since their opening.

Today we had not 1 but 2 new members, great to meet you both and I’m pleased you enjoyed today’s task. Very quickly everyone worked through the bags filling the rails in no time. Dave and Mel sorted a huge pile of books, amazing how more hands make for a lighter load.

Dawn had been busy knitting bobble hats for the Innocent smoothie bottles, they were so creative the watermelon themed hat was a fave, they were all amazing.

Good luck to those of you running Kibworth League race this Sunday and Weldone to Dave running to today’s task, Dawn walking and Mel reaching 105 days of 5km every day! Amazing!

Weldone everyone, Age UK praised your efforts as always appreciated.

Jim enjoyed modelling some of the latest jackets on offer . Lindsay made hot drinks and Nick provided some yummy cookies for the tea break. Well done everyone and thanks for the treats Nick .
