Who can fold the cardboard box and bin it quicker?
4 GoodGymers made their way to help the Ealing Soup Kitchen in Ealing.

On the bank holiday Monday, the soup kitchen was not as busy as usual. The guests were arriving at regular intervals. We were low on clothes in the Men's section, so most of them couldn't find what they were expecting.
Steph and Emma took the counter and distributed food. Divya had to do some food delivery from the kitchen to the front desk before taking the role from Emma.
We had a new joiner from Ealing for this task. Lehana was in the Women's section.
We closed rather earlier than usual and by 7:40 all tables were folded and the kitchen was cleaned far earlier at 7:00 pm.
21 boxes of tuna pasta and veg pasta were left when we closed which was collected as usual by one of the regular guests.
Steph, Divya, and I went to the Irish pub nearby and had a small social amongst ourselves.
The challenge
As we were wrapping up, Emma wanted to test the fitness of GoodGym members. The task was to fold the cardboard box and put it inside the bin bag. There were only two cardboards so Steph and Divya participated.
Divya stomped the cardboard and shoved it inside the bag a few seconds before Steph could do it.
