The Goodgym team secured the cool jobs for the afternoon as they took to the fridge to sort and separate items by 'Use By' and 'Best Before' dates. You'll be pleased to know that the only icebergs they faced were lettuces and all were happily sorted into mixed crates to be distributed across London.
The Felix Depot fridge hosted East London's answer to Spain's La Tomatina Festival as Aida, Asad and Kat sorted through crates of Rotten Tomatoes - but it was 100% reviews all round when the Ocado produce arrived to be sorted!
There wasn't mush-room to manoeuvre, so Aida got a taste of what it means to drive in East London, as she took to the pump trucks expertly shifting pallets around the warehouse to make space. Meanwhile, Asad did a brie-lliant job taking charge of the chilled dairy, meat and poultry and Kat slowed her roll, to inspect the bread and baked goods, and make sure there was a fair share of products across the crates.
Another successful afternoon at the coolest depot in town!

A few Goodgymers supported The Felix Project this afternoon; a charity that rescues surplus food from the food industry and redistributes it to those in need across London.
Today, some of the GoodGymers were asked to help in the kitchen and were tasked with assembling meal containers. We gloved up and arranged ourselves on the packing line. Michelle added potatoes to a container (and later switched to rice when the potatoes ran out), which was passed to Aga who added the broccoli, then Tudor who added the chicken and sauce, and finally to Nicolas for sealing and packing, ready for delivery later today. It was a swift packing line. Thanks to Aga for coining the report title!
It was Aga and Michelle’s second session with The Felix Project, and Tudor’s first session with GoodGym. Welcome Tudor! It was Nicolas’ first time at The Felix Project, and he stayed on for a bit longer after the lovely lunch that was set out for all the volunteers. Well done to all the GoodGymers who supported The Felix Project today!

Seasoned Felix Project-pro Oliver got to work in the Warehouse, whilst Lobo joined Tom to take us through our safety induction. Following an introduction to the warehouse, we headed next door to work in the kitchen.
The induction took just under an hour, which meant we only had 50 minutes in the kitchen but got straight to work.
It was a delight to work hard with Danya, Hedley, Lobo, and Oscar. Team spirit was very much the order of the day as we quickly formed efficient working lines to prep and pack ready meals of rice and dahl.
We completed 360 ready meal microwaveable boxes, which roughly equates to 438kg of ready-to-eat food for Londoners.
⭐️Well done, Everyone. I reckon that’s a job well done. ⭐️
I’d also like to extend a very warm welcome from GoodGym to Oscar and Hedley who joined us at Felix in Poplar for their first task. Looking forward to seeing you both soon.

We had a very impressive turnout for the first Felix Project shift on Saturday morning.
⭐️ Lobo and Emma greeted a birthday party of 8 enthusiastic sports and this was also their first GoodGym experience. ⭐️
After initial welcomes and a safety induction from Maya and Tom, our group of 10 headed to Felix Project’s kitchens. Shoes were swapped for clogs, hair carefully tucked into hairnets, hi-viz tabards swapped for aprons, hands washed, gloves donned aaaaand we were ready.
Split in to two groups with four GG’ers in the prep-kitchen, working hard at cutting up aubergines and de-stemming masses of tomatoes donated by a large supermarket that morning. The remaining six were in the final food-packing area. 90s pop and dance music played around the 120bpm mark: perfect to keep us going! We flew through preparing and portioning over 860 ready meals (around 900kg) of freshly cooked rice and delicately spiced fish curry into individual tubs. Once packed, these meals were loaded onto the Felix vans and off to distribution hubs around London.
Super satisfying! Well done guys!
🎉 Many happy returns to Sanchari and what a wonderful way to start celebrating your birthday with your friends. 🎈 Welcome to GoodGym, you lovely lot. I hope to see you all at some tasks soon.
