The cold is here!!!
But we didn't let it stop us. As the mercury went down in Sheffield town we still gathered at The Showroom and headed a short way around the corner to meet with Jess and the gang at Common Thread to help with some mass clothe sorting.
The system that is now known is to grab a big blue IKEA bag which contains unsorted clothes and check for quality and stains and if good then go on to catagorize from there and finally bag up, date and label and send back down in the lift.
This way when it comes to the next clothes swap, items have already been sorted and are good to be put out onto the rails for people to go through and select at their leisure.
As ever the Common Thread people were so welcoming with snacks on the table and the offer a warm drinks!
We love coming to Common Thread and will be back once more before Christmas so get yourselves signed up for the next one!
Happy running! :)
