We welcomed 2 new runners along this week. A big GG welcome to:

Peter and Samantha

This week was a new task to help sort clothes at Sanctuary, a charity helping asylum seekers and refugees.

We met Anna who told us about the charity and the task for the eve and we got stuck straight in sorting a load of bags into keep and not keep piles and then categorising even further.

The best find has to go to Rachel and her 'Sequined Fez Helmet'

After the task we took in some of the Sheffield beauty spots with some playground inspired games before heading home to stretch off and take one random mans advice to go for a pint!

Until next week, happy running!

The Sanctuary is a safe and welcoming space for refugees and asylum seekers to come and socialise, enjoy a hot meal and practice English. We also provide a weekly advice and information session where people can receive support with healthcare, immigration, housing and clothes amongst other services.
