Thursday 2nd January
Report written by Tom Peacock
A new year means a new look to the British Heart Foundation’s shop window and it was time to help the charity to catch hold of the January fitness drive and get the gym and fitness gear front and centre.
After helping bring racks of clothes and assorted articles down in the lift Rachel, Tom, Emma, Emily, Jade and Claire moved cross-trainers and rowing machines across the shop floor while we relied upon Jill for some artistic guidance in putting everything in the right place.
Mannequins were dressed with eyecatching gear and display cases filled with yoga mats, books and dumbbells and it all looked pretty decent in the end.
A very chilly run back to base camp (collecting valuable January Challenge points) but a warm welcome from the lovely team at the BHF as ever and the glow of a good job done.
