6 Goodgymers went to the Clothing Coventry warehouse for our regular donation sorting session.

Our task for this evening was to sort jumper donations into sizes and put them on hangers ready for people to collect. With snow this morning and more cold weather forecast, warm clothing will be very much needed.

Another visit to the carriers of hope , 7 awesome goodgymers made it to the task tonight.. What a banger of a night 💥. No fire works needed!

It was all hands to the pumps as a lot of things needed shifting , resorting and packing on the shelves. All ready to be sent out for people when needed.

Lil , Laura , Lucy were sorting the bedding sheets , quilts and duvets. Also shredding all the old documents. Georgia was sorting out the cutlery and helping the guys. Nigel Chris and me had to reorganise the electrical shelf and make some room for everything to fit 🤞 Nigel was excellent at making space and fitting everything in tidily. !! Great to see Bose again and meet Steph ! All jobs completed on time and a good job done by all 🙌 !!

Equipped with litterpickers and giant blue bin bags, five Goodgymers made their way to two different green spaces in Coventry City Centre for a litter pick.

After a good warm up with some good (morning) evenings, we ran around a mile to Humber road green space to litter pick the perimeter of the park. This route is busy with walkers, runners and cyclists and was fairly litter-free except for some batches (rolls/barms/baps/cobs and all other variations) . We then crossed the road to pick around Gosford Green, which is a popular area for local people to socialise or play sports on a sunny day. We managed to fill three bags with rubbish, and even had time to fit in Laura's version of some Kenyan Hill reps to get the HR up. Well done all!

Four Goodgym members made there to Willowbrook care home to help with the gardening!

With the nights drawing in now , light quickly faded , some head torches required for the tasks soon !

Laura and Lil were pruning , cutting back and clearing up some of the bushes . While Nigel and myself cleared an overgrown patch full of weeds and cultivated and replanted some of the existing plants back in . All jobs completed for the evening for Willowbrook 🙌 !!
