Two GoodGymers suited up for a cracking session at TRAID, sorting and hanging clothes to help keep perfectly wearable items out of landfill. Danielle was clearly a cut above with her retail experience, hanging two or three items for every one Brenda managed, while also sharing a few tricks of the trade for keeping long dresses off the floor! Together they got through plenty of stock, proving that when GoodGymers hang out together, they really can make a difference, one hanger at a time!

One GoodGymer joined Under One Sky at St Mary's Church to make and pack sandwiches for rough sleepers while Columbo and Law & Order played in the background. Between solving TV mysteries and assembling lunch packs from donated food, they helped ensure the outreach team had plenty of sandwiches ready for their night walk. As Columbo might say, "Just one more thing..." - every sandwich packed was one more person supported that evening.

Two GoodGym volunteers collected surplus food donated by Gail’s Bakery and delivered it to Under One Sky at St Mary’s Church, Bourne Street. The food, which would otherwise have gone to waste, was used to prepare sandwiches for outreach sessions supporting people experiencing homelessness, helping both reduce food waste and provide practical support to those in need.

So it became clear this afternoon that Mark Zuckerberg won't be visiting Mr R anytime soon (now there's an opening to a report that I never thought I'd ever write...), as four cans of Guinness featured at the top of Mr R's list.

Tesco can sometimes be hit and miss when it comes to items on Mr R's list, but four cans of Ireland's finest were easily found.

Four Goodgymers joined forces at the Strand to serve hot vegetable biryani, some biscuits and hot drinks to the homeless. In no time all the food was gone, maybe because less food was distributed before our arrival. It took us less than 30 minutes to empty the big container of hot food.

A "fun" shopping mission for Miss N this afternoon as it didn't involve visiting any chain supermarkets, instead I was tasked with going to the Halal Butchers for chicken breasts, her preferred fruit and veg shop on Edgware Road for a Honeydew, and then Farah Supermarket for 1kg of Honey...all successfully found and purchased, much to Miss N's delight!
