It was indeed a night on the tiles for the @GGSHF crew tonight!

We headed up the hill to The HOPE centre to meet with Facilities Manager Mark McKnight who opened up for us and lead us down into the MEGAstore where a huge amount of 'STUFF' has been stored from various work and activities that have taken place in the centre.

In the future, the hope is to clear the room in order to make it into a youth centre. Between now and then, there is a huge amount of sorting and skipping that needs to take place.

No doubt we will be back to continue the work, but on this occasion we focused on sorting and binning ceiling and carpet tiles that were no longer fit for use.

We were really on a roll and filled bags and trolleys up to the brim, ready for Marks team to wheel them out to a skip in the near future.

An excellent job was done by all, some might say our efforts were in the top percentile.. (thanks Ben).

Until next time, happy running :)

IT'S SNOWING!!!!!

Just as it started to come down we got out and got to Common Thread @Union Street to meet Jessica who welcomed us in to the lovely warm space and took us upstairs to the sorting room with offers of hot drinks and snacks! We'll definitely be coming back!

The evenings task was to help sort clothes, shoes and accessories, ready for the upcoming clothes swap that's taking place this Sat 23rd Nov. We got stuck in, grabbing bags and sorting them to make sure items were in good condition and in the correct category.

We even made a SHOE MOUNTAIN before pairing these beauties up, ready for their next owners.

It was a fantastic task and one we will be going back to over winter which is ideal for some winter warmth and light!

Until next time, happy running! :)
