Stairway to boxes
2 GoodGymers made their way to help the Safe and Sound in Bournemouth.
- Thursday, 17th of February 2022
- Led by Bournemouth runner
Dot from the charity Safe and sound, Sue and I met outside the St Georges Church in Boscombe and soon set to work loading boxing from the foodbank into Dots van.
We made short work of the boxes containing clothes (and some random xmas stuff) and Sue and I walked the few minutes over to the cafe where Dot needed the clothes moved to a downstairs room. One trip with the van was enough to get it all moved and Sue and I got plenty of exercise doing stairs!
Dot was very happy with our help and we may well be needed for some more tasks in the future. Sue and I had a little chat and then we parted ways and we both felt good for helping out. The cafe in the Royal Arcade is opening on the 1st March, so do pop in for a coffee if you have the chance!
