Yesterday 4 runners ran to the Croydon Refugee Day Centre to sort through the donations.

Three of us met at Solutions Gym to warm up and take a gentle jog along the streets of Croydon to the Refugee Day Centre. Although it wasn't far Rosalind beat us there! A task we have visited frequently, Ivanka met us and let us know what she had in store for us tonight. There were a few new bags of donations which needed to be sorted, sized and placed on the racks. Ingrid was busy sorting through the school uniform, and at the end of the session Emily saw for the first time how everything in the hall can be tidied away into the much smaller store room. Always an impressive feat of packing!

A lovely task to be a part of. Join us at the weekend for a community mission or our next group run on Tuesday where we will be working wonders along the boulevard with ECCO.
