Report written by John Hayes
Ben actually did the sorting and packing shift today after signing up for it. The last two have turned into delivery runs, so he was pleased to help out inside again. It was a good job he did, as Yvette was there doing her first good deed with GoodGym. They were able to work together at first and he took her through what usually happened with packing and the associated jobs. Unfortunately, he had to go and do another task in a different room before they could introduce themselves properly, but we were able to piece together that it was her from the conversation they had about Sundays being cancelled.
It was a nice and varied shift and the bags they were packing were the fullest Ben has seen them - which was great! He did quite a bit of cardboard and plastic duty, breaking up the cardboard etc and taking it down to a skip once the crates were full. There was also a delivery from FareShare to help with, a bulk load of food to be organised onto the shelves.
It's a big and nervous thing to do your first GoodGym task, especially right now when there aren't as many of us to greet you. Go and give Yvette a cheer to welcome her to the GoodGym community.
