Laura and Lucy armed themselves with baby-grows and tiny socks and teddies ! Crates wedged together like they'd been glued ! Making a racket trying to get them apart !! took some swearing and shoving. Lucy tugs too hard, nearly ends up , on her bum.!! 🤣 [ ] Downstairs was . Me, Jackie, Marcel, Lillian, Nigel stacking shelfs to the max to create some space for more donations we grabbed duvets, camping gear and clothes, got a couple of shelfs reorganised in half an hour ! All sorted for this month !
[ ] Great work everyone 🙌

Nine GoodGymers visited Carriers of Hope,

We joined Steph, Gloria, and Emmanuel to sort through heaps and heaps of donated toys into neat age groups. From dolls to diggers, board games to books – every donation a perfect gift, with some amazing fun toys for the children to choose from!

It was a great turnout, and everyone pitched in to organise and prepare everything, lightening the load for the Carriers of Hope crew. Good work, everyone! 🙌

9 Goodgymers made their way to Coffee Tots at The Wave to support with their Christmas preparations!

Our first task was to sort food donations into different categories so that the next team of volunteers can make up Christmas food parcels for local families. Then we moved on to hanging the Christmas decorations in the café, and were treated to some delicious festive snacks as we worked, those roasties were delish! We received a thanks from the Coffee Tots director and have been invited back in January to take the decorations down again (and have some more snacks!).

WelcomeManjit to Goodgym!
