It’ll Be All White On The Night
Seven of Richmond’s finest GoodGymmers made their way to lend a couple of hands (and an artistic eye or two) at INS Twickenham. INS (Integrated Neurological Services) is a not-for-profit organisation that supports people who have had their life impacted by neurological conditions such as a stroke. Their therapy room had been freshly repainted by another group of brilliant volunteers, and the team at INS had asked for GoodGym to help finish the job by freshening up the skirting boards, which no longer seemed to match the crisp white walls.
T, Chris and Adam were already working away when the group run (made up of Sam, Liz, Nina and Lucy) arrived from their 4.5k run up. Sarah from INS had a plethora of paintbrushes at the ready and we all got down on the floor to get on with the task.
No point skirting around, but we did a great job. We so efficient there was even time to paint the radiators too. The room seemed to glow! A quick wipe up of the paint drips (thanks to Chris and his cleaning cloth), a team photo and then we head back out into the impending storm to make our way home. Paint no stopping us!
