This week we visited the Carriers of Hope for our monthly volunteering session. 8 Goodgymers made it there tonight and there was plenty to be done !

Dawn and Namreen were there tonight to greet us as we arrived. The tasks tonight were reorganising all of Cutlery, bowls plates and dishes and all of the toiletry packs needed separating and and repacking into crates . It was a good turn out and everyone was kept busy . Also a new face Junny joining for his first Goodgym session, ! ! So welcome Junny . The tasks all got completed 🙌 and we will be back for another session next month. !

This week, seven Coventry Goodgymers went to Carriers of Hope for our regular volunteering session.

Our tasks for the evening included sorting donations of toys, clothes and nappies, checking dates on food donations, breaking down cardboard boxes and having a good ol' post-christmas tidy up. Three Goodgymers got stuck into the tasks for the evening, whilst another four headed out on a social 5k run in the local area, and then joined the task after the run. We had a great evening as ever and are looking forward to returning next month for some more Goodgym fun.

December already !! And another amazing visit to the Carriers of hope. 7 Goodgymers came along for a fun filled evening, sorting through all of the amazing toys. The toys needed to be sorted out ready for presents for Christmas 🎄

There was a lot to go through, and some very exciting games, books puzzles and toys !
Nigel kept us entertained with some keyboard cameo and costume performance 🤣

Great task that everyone enjoyed, and managed to get it all done for this month's visit to Carriers of hope ! 🙌

Another visit to the carriers of hope , 7 awesome goodgymers made it to the task tonight.. What a banger of a night 💥. No fire works needed!

It was all hands to the pumps as a lot of things needed shifting , resorting and packing on the shelves. All ready to be sent out for people when needed.

Lil , Laura , Lucy were sorting the bedding sheets , quilts and duvets. Also shredding all the old documents. Georgia was sorting out the cutlery and helping the guys. Nigel Chris and me had to reorganise the electrical shelf and make some room for everything to fit 🤞 Nigel was excellent at making space and fitting everything in tidily. !! Great to see Bose again and meet Steph ! All jobs completed on time and a good job done by all 🙌 !!

A wet and windy start to the month, didn't stop 6 Goodgymers making there way to the carriers of hope ! .

Bose and Michelle the from carriers of hope went to great efforts to get everyone in after the gates had been locked with the keys inside !! A potential disaster was averted🙌 phew !

Once we were all in it was a crate evening all round 🤣 ! Helping to move and unload the crates and sort out clothes for the adults that are helped by the Carriers of hope ! It was crate to see Chris there again and Lucy visiting for the first time ! We had to unload and unstack all the crates to find the correct clothes . And sort and separate all the clothes from the bedding and reload and stack everything back. A good workout to be fair , and another task completed! Always a pleasure to see Michelle and Bose and look forward to visiting them again next month !!

Lucy and Jackie from good gym joined an army of volunteers sorting through the hundreds of items left by students finishing their studies at Warwick Uni . They quickly set to work sorting stuff into clothes, bedding, electrical Kitchen etc . These will all be shared out to those in need either in the Uni or the wider community . A good mornings sorting ensuring that these items don’t end up in landfill !
