Report written by Rosie Baker
6 GoodGymmers ran and cycled their way to FareShare Sussex and Surrey’s depot this evening, to help them prepare for tomorrow’s deliveries and collections.
After donning our mandatory kit of boots, high viz vests, and gloves - we were given our instructions by task host Steven.
After a rather hot and sweaty 2.5 mile run, Rosie, Jane and Nicola were eager to help out in the refrigerated section of the warehouse, picking orders ready for collection, while cyclists Rachel, Sarah and Sarah opted to keep warm and help load the van with tomorrow’s deliveries to the Guildford hub.
