Like rain off a duck’s back!

Monday 24th November

Written by Ian Gostling

Tonight 7 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 6km to support John Grooms Court, a residential home for adults with physical and intellectual disabilities.

The task was to paint the outdoor decking and fences, an area that had been neglected but is the only outdoor space available to the residents.

We were given a large pot of 'Duck's back' paint (hence the pun) and shared it out between us to cover as much of the area as possible.

The weather wasn't kind to us - low temperatures & increasing rain! But we stuck to the task until the paint was gone.. then it really was time to say goodbye, dry off and warm up!

Amazing effort team.
