A goodly size group of GG Yorkies met at the new St Leonard's Hospice donation centre at Clifton Moor. After a short induction and tour we split into two teams of four. Half of the group hung, priced and put out clothes in the £1 clearance shop whilst the other half sorted kids' and ladies' clothes into summer and winter. We had a quick tea break half way through and in no time our two hours was up. We'd got a lot of stock into the shop and sorted many crates in the warehouse which will be a big help.

Four fabulous GG Yorkies assembled in Rawcliffe for another leafleting session for St Leonard's Hospice. The leaflets are to help recruit more volunteers and advertise their new shop at Clifton Moor which has been extremely busy since it opened.

Ed and Neil went off to deliver leaflets a little bit further away, whilst myself and Vicky did the immediate area from our meeting point. We managed to not get lost in the maze of cul-de-sacs and after 45 minutes had delivered all our leaflets despite the gentle drizzle. Ed and Neil had also delivered all of their leaflets so a total of around 500 done this evening - well done gang!

Myself, Jenna and Claire gathered in Rawcliffe to deliver leaflets for St Leonard's Hospice. After a quick look at the map we headed off together to tackle the maze of cul-de-sacs, trying not to get lost! After just an hour, we'd completed a good section of the map and delivered around 200 leaflets. There are many more leaflets and areas to cover so look out for another session soon!
I forgot to take a photo so here are the maps and leaflets instead!

After some perusing of the plants for sale and welcoming new GoodGymer Libby, we got to work tidying up the tables and plants after the hospice's successful sale. We carefully stacked some ceramic plant pots, wiped and packed away the tables, and boxed up the unsold plants into crates and wheelbarrowed them round the back of the centre for someone to sort through tomorrow.

St Leonard finished their plant sale and required help tidying up after the event. The fantastic five helped out and accomplished the following:

Cleaned the tables ✅ Cleared away the tables ✅ Ate some cake ✅ Stacked and tidied the chairs ✅ Moved unsold plants and trees ✅ Ate some doughnuts ✅ Picked up litter ✅ Ate some more cake ✅

Overall a success!

Five of us helped clear up at the end of St Leonard's Hospice plant sale. Some of the leftover plants were being displayed for people to collect at a later date and others sadly were destined for the compost. After sorting, displaying or composting all the leftover plants we helped take down the tables and gazebo before heading off a couple of us laden with plants and others wishing we were able to carry some.
