It was a new task last night and as is always welcome in the winter an indoor task!

We met with the fantastic Aruna from Sheffield Futures who welcomed us into the building and offered us drinks and asked if we wanted to take the lift or climb the 4 flights of stairs to our destination.

Being the @GGSHF crew, we of course kindly said no to both drinks and lifts in favor of cracking straight on with the task in hand and getting some extra steps in on the way!

Up up and away we went, up the 4 flights to the top of the building.

Aruna gave us a brief of the task for the evening which was to sort through donated clothes and shoes in preparation for a future sale to raise funds for the charity.

We got straight to it sorting and piling up clothes into various categories, pairing trainers and bagging up items once we came to the end of the sorting.

From there we piled the now sorted items into the lifts and sent them down to the ground floor. We again opted for the stairs and met the lifts on the ground floor. We then hand bawled the items down another flight of stairs to the basement where the items were to be stored until sold.

It was great to meet Aruna and work with Sheffield Futures, hopefully there will be future opportunities to work with them again soon!

Until next time, happy running! :)
