On a sunny Saturday morning, six GoodGym Leeds members arrived at Crossgates and Districts Good Neighbours scheme, to help paint the inside of the centre white.

It was lovely to welcome Evie to her first GoodGym Leeds task.

We set about painting the main rooms and smaller rooms. Being the tallest Alex was assigned the painting of the ceiling. We were very kindly given a welcome cup of tea and slice of cake at the break time.

By the end of the two hours, most of the painting work had been completed with just a few bits left that the Crossgate team are planning to finish.

The walls looked a lot brighter after a fresh coat of white paint.
