Ten amazing GoodGymmers made their way to one of our regular tasks at Mind Charity Warehouse. Only 3 members had not visited here before, there was enough of us to show them the ropes. We were also joined again by Gwyn and Tracey from GoodGym Derby, always a pleasure.
The clothes sorting side of the room Lisa who is a pro at tagging (she's done it that many times), plus Ashley and Dawn were busy clothes sorting, checking and tagging getting stuck in.
Meanwhile Jimmy and Stu were in their fave corner sorting cd's and dvd's, could only just see Jimmy's wave for all the donations they were sorting through.
Nick, Dan (must be his running rest day from a 50 mile week with a little race on Sunday), Tracey and Gwynn, were book sorting with one of the books called Chris? Any way I could hear them all laughing so it must have been an interesting read. All followed by a cup of tea, not the quality Dave usually makes us, but it was hot.
Weldone GoodGymmers another task where more hands made for lighter work your efforts in the busy warehouse are always appreciated by the staff.

Three Goodgymers went to the Trussel Trust's South Leicestershre Foodbank warehouse where the food is collected in from businesses. Today we were making up crates of vegetarian food for 2 people. Kerri met us and took Lisa, Jimmy, and Nick up to the top floor where a large table had all the items required, each in their own crate. We then used a shopping trolley to move our crate around the table adding the required items before stacking it onto a pallet ready to go out to a foodbank collection point. We filled 20 crates which made a full pallet. We then refilled all the items on the table ready for the next volunteers to make up some more crates. Having previously helped at a distribution point it was good to now see where all those crates of food came from.
