Five Goodgymers met at Age UK to help sort clothes, shoes and books to go out on the racks and shelves. Great to have our new Goodgymer Sita join us today , lovely to have her onboard.

The famous 5 were met and taken to the warehouse where Jimmy and Sita were tasked with sorting books, cds and dvds. Mel, Nick and Lindsey sorted bags of clothes into sizes and hung on the clothes racks ready to sell .

Thirsty work so Abby from AGE UK made a brew and said GG were welcome anytime.

A great task, welcoming,warm and rewarding!

Not only a new organisation for us to work with but a new Age UK Superstore in Leicester, found by task force member Jimmy on his cycle home from another task.

6 Goodgymers were kindly welcomed and given a quick tour and demo how to label, tag and hang, Jimmy took his school boy notes which we all referred back to.

Nick found his specialty at charity shops, book sorting with Samir too, together they sorted a pile of books ready to stock the shelves.

In no time at all the clothes rail was looking fuller with clothes going from sacks, to be labelled then hung on the rail all buttoned up.

The staff made us coffees, with biscuits and sweets, the Goodgymmers were happy. Good Luck to Mel and Nick at the Belvoir Challenge this weekend, a 24hr lapped race and Mel sounds like she's taking on every volunteering opportunity available, Lindsay asked when is she going to sleep?!

Afterwards we all had a browse of the new charity shop, Jimmy was tempted by a a toy digger I'd like to have seen him carry that home on his bike. Great to see you all, weldone team we'll be back.

The famous five were at it again! This time delivering leaflets about the up and coming Leicester Half marathon and 10km. Lots of shops and businesses were made aware of the road closures.

A lovely sunny evening for the task . Big thanks to Nick,Ashley and Lindsay for finishing off deliveries.

It's the holiday season so we didn't have many Goodgymmers free. and MIND warehouse had asked for some help sorting donations as their staff are also away this week. Lindsay and Nick arrived to find a van load of mixed jigsaws and games piled in the warehouse. We sorted through the bags and made 2 piles. We also sorted any other items we found into their correct place - pottery, crafting items,, DVD's, kitchen tools and lots of cuddly toys. After 100 minutes we'd cleared the delivery and the. warehouse looked a lot tidier
