11 strong GoodGymers ran 5k to move 3 tonnes of office furniture 200 metres from a closing office to St Andrews Youth club.

A big task this evening but it was no match for our expert band of GoodGymers!

With the business of the Trustees of St Andrews moving to a new office all the current furniture was made available to St Andrews to update their office space.

We made our way armed with multiple trollies up to the 3rd floor of a big office block and got shifting. Long tables down the stairs, desks in the lifts, unbolting big desks, helium, bottled water, coat stands, and a load of chairs!!

Being super careful in the building new lifts as well as ultra steady going down the stairs we navigated the 200 metre journey from the office to St Andrews. Stacked them up in the youth club and zipped back to grab the next haul.

With such a big and sometimes tricky task we ran a little late and got a bit hot luckily to cool us down and speed us up for the run back the heavens opened and it poured down!!

So with added urgency and natural cooling we got back only 7 minutes late with a huge positive impact for one of Westminster’s most treasured community organisations complete!!

Thank you for coming and hope to see you next week for our visit to Little Venice to keep the plastic out of the waterways along our adopted stretch of canal.
