Seven intrepid painter decorators went to the Somali Women's Centre for a third go at painting their downstairs and it turns out it is the whole of the downstairs which needs painting. I think this is the biggest task us Good Gymers in Liverpool have taken on to date.

Some of the rooms are enormous and it is likely to be another three visits before we are finished but undaunted by this seemingly endless task, seven of us got down to painting the place white.

There was Jo, Ben, Farnaz, Christine and Matthew and a big shout out to Alex and Emma for coming along. Alex has recently joined and this was Emma's first GoodGym Community Mission, so we all hope you enjoyed getting stuck in. They did an amazing job of stripping back damaged wall and filling in and used up two whole tubs of Polyfilla (other fillers are available).

We got the kitchen and one other room finished and have started on the corridors and main rooms, so it was another successful night. And in the words of Arnie in Terminator (sort of) "We'll be back".
