Last night’s mission to Bassuah Legacy Foundation was stitched together beautifully — and honestly? We absolutely nailed it.

We kicked things off at Shepherd’s Bush station with our usual pre-task buzz. Huge shoutout to Ali on their very first GoodGym session! You didn’t just show up — you showed out. And welcome to your first Group Run Jasmine and Jalal. First time experiencing the magic that is controlled chaos in a charity shop… and you handled it like pros. Consider yourselves officially initiated.

Once inside, we got straight to work supporting Bassuah’s incredible mission of uplifting and empowering single families in need. Our task? Bring order to the kingdom of donations. And oh, did we deliver.

• Tops were tamed

• Hats were herded

• Scarves were sorted

• Bedding was beautifully bundled

We worked like a dream team — coordinated, considerate, and efficient — even while honouring Tina’s (very firm!) request that we not move things around too much. Did that stop us from being effective? Absolutely not. We organised with precision. We shuffled strategically. We maximised impact within our “minimal movement” brief.

And because we can’t help ourselves, we’ve already started brainstorming ways to transform the basement storage into additional selling space. More rails, clearer layout, better flow — imagine the fundraising potential! Watch this space… we’ve got plans.

Same time next month — comfy clothes, positive energy, and plenty more good vibes.🙌

Last night's meet-up was a blast! Just me and Chau, taking over the Bassuah Legacy Foundation charity shop 💪🏽👟

We were greeted with a warm hug from Tina, the lovely owner. We got straight to work, dividing and conquering like pros 🤑!

I took on the upstairs challenge, swapping out old stock for fresh faces 👕👗, while Chau tackled the downstairs store area like a boss 👑. She sorted bags of clothes into neat boxes, separating brands from non-brands like a pro 🕵️‍♀️.

The verdict? The shop is looking sorted 🤩!

If you ever find yourself in the area, do pop into Bassuah Legacy Foundation – it's a win-win: great finds and supporting single-parent families 👏!

Last night we braved the chilly weather for a speedy task at Masbro Centre, where we received a lovely warm welcome from Camille — very much appreciated given how cold it was out there! 🥶✨ It was also great to have Mariella join us for her first session in the area — welcome to the neighbourhood! 👋

Our main mission was to sweep the leaves from the car park, and we wasted no time getting stuck in. Armed with brooms and determination 🧹💪, we worked fast to keep warm and managed to fill three whole bags of leaves in just 25 minutes — not bad at all! 🍂🍂🍂

Cold but productive, this was a brilliant quick-win task and a great start for Mariella in the area. Big thanks to everyone involved, and to Masbro Centre for having us — until next time! 🌟
