A beautiful sunny evening, four goodgymers turned up to Carriers of Hope for our monthly visit. The lovely Gloria was there to greet us, only we had a problem ,the main gateway was locked🙈 oh no! So we thought that was it and reluctantly said to Sharon and Lucy, who had arrived, that they might as well go home because we can’t get in! Myself and Gloria were just about to leave when someone came out and they had keys and opened the door so we could get in! Awesome👌!! Georgia came just as we gained access and Lucy came back as she was not too far away. Brilliant it was back on again.! So Georgia and I helped Gloria cut some carpet and after that it was on to sorting out all the new donations into crates and shelves accordingly. Alll different things , from curtains , clothes games and books, and we though we had found a stash of £50"s !! only it was napkins 😕 We managed to get four tubs cleared and sorted. A very successful evening despite the setback, so great work everyone 🙌”

Eight Coventry Goodgymers ran, walked and cycled to Clothing Coventry for our monthly task at the charity.

This week, our task was to help sort donations that were suitable for a clothes sale for Clothing Coventry to raise essential funds to continue to stay open. We had a lot of fun sorting clothes into different brands and sizes and putting them on hangers ready for the sale in April. Same time again next month?

Welcome Mohamed to GoodGym Coventry and well done on your first good deed of many we hope!

Tuesday 10th March—six Goodgymers turned up at Colliers football ground for round two of painting and scrubbing. Jane, John and Paul from the Coventrians were already there, cracking on with various jobs. Nigel, Lucy and me grabbed the overalls and went full painter-mode on the changing rooms and toilets. We are not quite Lawrence llywellyn bowen and crew but we have Nigel and he was cutting in the ceilings like a pro, while Lucy and I rolled everything else ! !. Lil, Georgia and Jackie smashed the cleaning: sweeping, bleaching showers, the lot. And the Dogs Lillie and Derek were wandering about like they own the place, as usual. Loads left to paint, so we'll be back soon. Proper good effort ,nice one! 🙌"
