In true Goodgym style, Carys ran, Carol and Sarah walked, Sheila cycled, and Helen came straight from a Pilates class to volunteer at the Baby Bank. There we met with Sam, Mark and Kate for our regular Friday morning session. Helen and Sheila were put onto checking Baby Buggies. The airport had just delivered dozens of buggies that had been left at the airport and never reclaimed. These were checked for age, quality and suitability for handing out to families, and cleaned. Any lightweight ones were put aside to be sold to raise funds. Afterwards we joined the other upstairs who were busy clothes-sorting and putting together referrals. Helen and Sheila went through the shoe donations, checking they weren't too scuffed or dirty. By the end of the session, the checked clothes had been sorted and the shoe donation travel cot was empty. Result! It was great to see so many Goodgymers there, making a real difference

We gathered an amazing 7 Goodgymers together for a session at the Baby Bank this morning. It was lovely to welcome Carys for her first ever Goodgym community mission, Sam for her second and Kate for her third! Kate has been volunteering regularly at the Baby Bank for a while, but I've only just found out that she is a signed up Goodgym member. She kept that quiet! Regulars Amanda, Sarah, Carol and Sheila completed the septet. Most of us were dealing with sorting through the enormous piles of clothes donations and finding homes for them. The newcomers quickly got to grips with the standards the Baby Bank operate under, and there were lots of oohs and aahs over some very cute clothing. Meanwhile Kate and Amanda were putting together referral packs. We had some lovely chats as we worked, and hopefully we'll see you all again soon

An amazing 5 Goodgymers turned up to help at the Baby Bank this morning. As usual, the place was very busy with donations coming in and lots of checking to do. Mark and Viv were doing first checks on the donations while Sarah and Sheila were doing secondary checks and putting clothes away in boxes. Carol seems to have become the resident expert on hand-knitted items, so she was checking beautiful hand-knits for safety and sizing them - first cardigans and pullovers and then a box full of hats. Great job!

Carol, Sarah, Viv and Sheila helped out at the Baby Bank this morning. It was Viv's first volunteer at the facility but she quickly got to grips with the checking process for clothes donations. We spent the morning checking, sorting, and putting away clothes alongside some corporate volunteers.

Angela, Carol and Sheila went to help out at the Baby Bank, and were delighted to meet with Sarah, who has volunteered with them previously, but this is her first official Goodgym session. Carol bravely took on the task of sorting through the shoe donations, while Sarah set about trying to get the bags of clothes donations into the correct storage travel cots, moving on to distributing the spare pyjama packs. Angela and Sheila were sorting clothing, concentrating on the age groups we are short of, so we can fulfil some requests. When we left, the facility was looking a lot more ordered, but still plenty for the Monday team to do
