A big welcome back to Monika who joined us for her second GG task in a row. We hope you become a regular member and continue to join us each week.
This week we joined Jess from Common Thread and Regather fame at Union Street along with other volunteers to help sort some clothes out for Ben's Centre; a charity that aims to provide a safe space and an open hand to those who suffer through substance misuse and its associated barriers.
You can find out more about Ben's center here.
We sorted through Common Thread donnations and put bags together of wanted items for Ben's center including warm layers and clothes that would dry well after getting wet.
9 bags in total were sorted, ready to go to Ben's center.
Until next time, happy running! :)
