James and Linda found themselves unexpectedly free on a Monday evening, Storm Bert had done its thing swirling up litter and the weather was now calm and unusually mild so we decided to get out there and clear some of it up. A short while later we had two bags of rubbish, a dodgy gas canister and a possible new GG recruit. Half an hour well spent.

This was GGs third visit to the Frenford Food Bank this week.

Lack of sign ups meant a shout went out to the group chat and thankfully, some members had been available during the day for a separate session and James was able to attend this one after work. His arrival coupled with some unsuspecting Frenford parents (diverted by the task owner to "volunteer" ) brought fresh energy to the session leaving Linda free to deal with the drivers and stock up on short items.

James and Linda stayed on to make sure the advent calendars were allocated to the families with children.

As always the job gets done with profound thanks being passed on from the task owner.

Not sure how or why but we went from 5 GoodGym volunteers for the evening session at Frenford Foodbank to 1 😳. A little shout out for help revealed a couple of members (retired and but not keen on going out at night) were available during the day so an extra daytime session was born. Along with them and another non-member we managed to get most of the supermarket delivery shelved up and 20 packages parceled ahead of time. This eased up the pressure on the evening session. The task owner has thanks us for our efforts. Never underestimate Grey Power 💪🏻.
