Although this is Sheffield Goodgym's shortest run, it packs a tall - but enjoyable - task. The common thread project, held at the coworking space on Union Street, is flooded with clothes donations of all kinds, from accessories to baby clothes to jumpers and skirts. We joined other volunteers helping the project by sorting clothes into specific piles to later sort into charity packages ("is it a top or is it a dress?!!"). Aided by some coffee and biscuits, we got through the adult clothes quickly and then moved on to sorting the kids clothes into age order. Overall, the task was very fun and it's great to see a noticeable difference and think towards all the people and projects these clothes will be helping in the future

10 Goodgymmers met up at The Showroom Cinema. Sharsm welcomed everyone. A big Welcome to Lesley who we have not seen for a very long time. He says he will start coming more often now that he is back in Sheffield. We all ran up to meet up with Craig who was waiting for us at the junction of Cricket Inn Road and Maltravers Road. Craig then explained to us the main task of 'Litter Picking' and gave us tools, gloves, bin bags,etc...We all then split up in various directions and worked in pairs. There were lots of rubbish including cans and bottles which made the bin bags heavier than expected. Altogether we collected 13 Full Bin Bags. Gerry then gave us biscuits as a treat. Thank you Gerry and she also ran with us from the Showroom and back again with us. A great team with cooperation, chats and worked hard. Thank you all who supported this organization.

On a muggy Sheffield eve the GG SHF team assembled at The Showroom Cinema for another group run.

It was great to welcome Shahram who joined us fresh from the Future Leaders session in Manchester and was full of enthusiasm on his first GG SHF run! We hope to see more of you Shahram.

After quick intros we headed off to meet Karen of Pitsmoor Pickers and get tooled up!

I think our numbers were a shock to Karen and we even had too many people for the pickers she had so some of us got gloved up and picked up the bigger bits.

Cans were collected for future weighing in and everything else was bagged up and/or moved to a nearby public bin ready for collection by the council after Karen had reported it to them.

Adrian even found a knife which was carefully moved and reported to Police by Karen and has now been collected by Police to be destroyed.

It was a good haul and a number of us headed into The Showroom for drinks and bites to eat before heading home.

A good job by all and thanks to everyone for coming out.

Hope to see you all on the next one. Happy running :)
