Six Coventry Goodgymers (including one newbie - welcome Andy went to Baby Godiva to help with unloading vans to Baby Godiva's shiny new premises.

When the vans arrived, we made quick work of unloading and moving items to different locations in the new space, including buggies, moses baskets, toys and clothes. Whilst we waited for another van to appear, we sorted the mountain of nappies into different sizes, stocked up the shelves with baby bath products, wipes and other essentials, and recycled the cardboard boxes.

Baby Godiva were really pleased with what we were able to do, we hope to be back soon for some more sorting fun!

Fantastic job tonight everyone! We really pulled it off with the two GoodGym teams and have made a huge dent in Baby Godiva's storage units relocating to their new digs next door to Clothing Coventry.

We tackled a mountain of baby gear, filling 6 van loads to the brim ready to hand over to the awesome crew waiting at Napier Street. Everything went without a hitch and we got in a solid workout with some heavy lifting.

Shout out to James who went the extra mile and let them load his van which he then drove with Greame to unload.

At the end of the night, we made our way over to the new unit to help unload the final van. To top it all off, we capped the evening with a group photo to celebrate our epic teamwork! Well done, you are all amazing and this is a HUGE help to the Baby Godiva charity.

8 Goodgymers in the super hot weather making there way to clothing Coventry tonight. With [Jill Ashley], Meera, Georgia, Steve and Laura taking a steady run over from together from Coventry boys and Girls club, Sharon taking a walk and Nigel and James meeting us there.

We arrived and were presented with an array of school shoes to sort. We jumped right in organising them by size and gender with a flurry of crates. With some of us labeling crates, others opening packages full of shoes and the rest loading up the crates, we worked seamlessly as a team and did a shoeper job!

With ten minutes to spare we paired up and did a speed session of 'wants', 'needs' and what the 'hells', a bit like snog marry, avoid as Nigel pointed out. We had a chuckle watching the guys pulling out the womens clothing and try to figure out what on earth they were looking at.

With the session ending Jo explained lots of extra help that they need so need to go away and see if there is any way we can help them out.

This evening, five members of Goodgym visited Clothing Coventry. It's been a while since we last went and we had the chance to check out the shops new look which now occupies the old warehouse. The new set up significantly enhances the customer experience, giving them the dignity to choose their own clothes.

As always there were heaps of bags to sort through and hang up. Jill, Jackie and Laura focused on categorising items into 'want', 'need' and 'what the hell' (aka rag). James and Graeme tackled the hanging up the 'want' items although they later found this was not as stress free as they first thought. We got through quite a few white sacks, though it felt like we barely made a dent. Still, every effort counts!

Great job everyone! Hopefully we will see you all next week at Harmony Hub.

Five Goodgymers walked to Clothing Coventry this evening, but not for the usual sorting and sizing tasks! This week we put on our least favourite running leggings and shoes for a painting task! In preparation for a new member of staff starting soon, our task was to give the office space a fresh lick of white paint. Armed with sandpaper, rollers and brushes, we quickly got to work on painting and had soon given the room a first coat, although it looks like it will need at least one more coat before it is ready to be used as an office again. We will be back soon to finish the job!

**On a very wet February evening, 11 intrepid goodgymers walked and ran to support Clothing Coventry. **

Unperturbed by rain, which thankfully began to dry up once we'd done introductions and a warm up, we set off on the short journey to Clothing Coventry. We had lots of walkers tonight Laura so led this group whilst Lil did the warm up for those running. Once we arrived at the warehouse we got into smaller groups for the various tasks. Some set to tidying and sorting whilst others made light work of assembling some shelving. When this was completed, we had the fun task of filling the new racks with a fantastic assortment of shoes that people will be able to select for themselves. We also did several trips up and down the stairs with stock and to the adjacent warehouse which proved a great way to inject some fitness into the task.

Tonight we also welcomed Tom to his first session, and Beverley to her first Tuesday night session.

Top work everyone, we look forward to seeing you at future sessions too.
