Bath Report written by Jer Boon
This afternoon we headed over to The Nest Project to help swap over their seasonal clothing stocks.
We were joined by a host of new GoodGym first-timers from the university - welcome guys, it was lovely to have you along. You are excellent and efficient sorters, not to mention very neat folders!
The Nest is a charity providing clothing for young children, to families with financial difficulties, and with spring beginning to spring (note: it was still flipping cold out today!) it’s time to put the winter range into storage and break out the summer clothes instead...
The long term storage is in cupboards downstairs, and the current range is set out in the room upstairs. So first up there was a bit of shifting to do. We split into two teams - one getting the summer clothing out of the storage, and another bringing the boxed winter range downstairs so that it can be put away in the newly vacated cupboard.
Then the summer range needed a little sorting and quality control. A lot of it is already boxed by both age and gender, but we had to go through those boxes just to double check. And also there were bags of new donations needing to be sorted into said boxes, before to finish up we had to take those boxes upstairs.
With something like 10 volunteers and the two staff, we managed to get everything done in the time slot, whilst as per usual being fuelled by some excellent home-made cake, and tea and coffee.
