Four GoodGymers were back at our usual Thursday mission at the East End Women foodbank.
Food bank task regulars Kate and Charlotte started off restocking the main shelves with tins. Me and new GoodGymer Renee got stuck into unpacking a huge bag of pot noodles and sorting them by flavour into a huge tower of pot noddle filled creates, taking out any damaged ones some of which were leaking favouring powder everywhere. We also found one which felt like they have forgot to put the noodles in.
Once the shelves were bursting with tinned food Kate and Charlotte moved on to making up bags with toiletries in ready for when needed. Once they had filled a box of these me and Renee had finally finished unpacking the what felt like it never ending bag of pot noodles, we all went and unpacked boxes into create and sorted them into the correct stacks. We got through this in no time clearing the packs of tinned food from the middle of the floor.
With all tasks completed we headed off a bit early and I managed to get back to work in good time. Instead of eating a pot noddle I spent my lunch break unpacking hundreds of them.
