Report written by David Mansfield
We had a massive team out tonight with several new faces, Eron, Karim, Jacob and Soran. Welcome to the team, I hope you all enjoyed your first session!
Our task this week was scraping and painting the posts at the 61 Football Club. With so many in attendance I was very glad that I dug loads of extra scrapers out of my garage.
As soon as the first runners arrived we started the scraping marathon and soon had loads of people scraping away at the concrete posts. Once the first posts were finished we got some painters going, giving the posts a fresh coat of white paint.
The scraping team went crazy and got loads done, getting way ahead of the painters, so next week when we return we'll be able to get painting straight away.
Theres a few more visits left in this task yet but we made excellent progress tonight. the place looks much cleaner and fresher. really transformed from the tired paintwork we found on our first visit.
The night also saw Ella complete her 50th good deed with us, so she has earned her new black shirt and will be showing it off soon. Well done Ella!
