Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
A smaller than usual group missing several regular do-gooders assembled at Roll For The
Soul on a beautiful but very warm Saturday morning for a run to the East Bristol Foodbank
in Lawrence Hill.
Led by the inexperienced duo of David H and David G and welcoming newcomer Ann for her
first GG outing our intrepid eight headed off on a familiar route over Castle Green towards
the Bristol to Bath cycle path before veering off under the St Phillips Causeway to the Big
Yellow Storage unit in Lawrence Hill where the Food Bank is situated. Here we met the
wonderful Andy and Brenda who were able to allocate tasks to what turned out to be an
almost ideal number of enthusiastic GoodGymers.
These included weighing crates of various different foodstuffs, and cracking on with packing,
unpacking, stacking, unstacking and re-stacking of crates and shelves. The crate task suitably
smashed in true GoodGym fashion we bid adieu to a crateful Andy and Brenda and headed
off on our merry way (almost) back the way we came, with enough time for a relay race
around the bandstand in Castle Park followed by some press ups before heading back to Roll
For The Soul for as many stretches as we could remember.
Crate Job gang!
P.S Pru here! Great job from Team David, thanks for stepping in to make sure the run went ahead! Thanks chaps!
