It was a fantastic evening at St. Martin’s Church, with lots of painting to be done down an office corridor, leading into the outdoor area of a previous gardening task!

The shade was ‘Egyptian Cotton’ - hence ‘greige’… it’s a lovely fresh shade mixing beige and grey. So, before long our rollers were rolling and our paintbrushes were brushing!

Lots of tidy, intricate work around light switches, bannisters and along the masking tape borders. Plus some good coats on the main walls. We had a brilliant team and enjoyed welcoming Sophie to her first task.

Rich from the church helped us along with our painting and gave us a lovely little tour of other areas needing a fresh lick of paint. A few of us then headed into the city centre for a social and got a taste of Birmingham Cocktail Weekend’s vibes!

Stay tuned for the next task and our Christmas social going in the diary. Thank you again to everyone for helping out, it was wonderful teamwork!

Tonight we were at our brand new city centre base, The Good Intent.

The session was a running workout followed by a litter pick outside the church on Carrs Lane.

We headed off to 'the hill' in the Jewellery Quarter to do some Kenyan hills. The workout was 8 minutes of Kenyan hills followed by 3 hard hill sprints. Everyone worked hard as you can see from the photos, the group were running so hard they caused a blur!

Once done we swung by our old base, 1000 Trades to pick up our litter pickers to take to our litter picking spot.

We managed a full bag of litter clearing the area in double quick time.

Once done, we walked back to the Good Intent for a well earned drink :)
