A frosty, sunny start to the day the meadows were a delight. 5 Goodgymmers met at Jenno's to run across the Meadows to the MIND Warehouse, meeting another 2 Goodgymmers. Shelia ran to the meet spot, Martin too, me and Jimmy cycled together.
Today we helped sort donation bags- items to supply the MIND charity shops or send to third world counties.
The MIND Warehouse is very busy with many comings and goings. It was great to see the warehouse looking more spacious, since we last visited a new table has been installed to allow more space for volunteers.
We met MIND's regular volunteers today, who are so valuable in keeping the charity shops supplied with the best quality products, they were very welcoming and all wanted to help us learn the ropes.
Today was a special day for Martin not only did he run 5 miles before meeting us, he's also reached 10 good deeds! He is really enthusiastic to reach 50 good deeds which is great to hear, keep up the awesome work!
Fantastic turnout for our group session today, Stu's one liners were on top form and Dave's tea making skills were perfection. Weldone team, 1 whole cage of donation bags sorted and a 4 mile group run, plus a good laugh.
