Care4Calais are a fabulous charity which deliver emergency aid to refugees and those affected by the European migrant crisis. Their local Stockport warehouse houses wall to wall boxes of donated clothes, toys and anything that may be of use to those arriving in the UK, having fled their homes.

The local Stockport hub is an Aladdin's cave tucked away in the mill buildings of central Stockport and one of our very rewarding regular tasks.

With large numbers of refugees arriving in Manchester, Care4Calais needed a helping hand to sort and prep boxes of donated goods into gender and size catagories, ready to be distributed to those in need. Giving boxing fitness a new meaning!

4 GoodGymers sifted and sorted then sealed and labelled and in no time at all, the boxes were ready to be delivered to their destination adDRESS.
