This week we ran and walked to Holy Trinity Church to give the porch a good cleaning. We brushed out the spider webs, cleaned the windows, cleaned and polished all the woodwork too.

As well as that we started preparing for a painting job on an interior wall that has peeling paint as a result of an old roof leak. We gave the loose paint a good scraping to get it off the wall. We made a good start but it definitely needs another go before it can be painted. we spent as long clearing up our mess as we did making it! We'll be back for another go.

The session was enjoyable and rewarding. We learned new things during the activity and gained valuable experience. The group included new volunteers, and everyone was kind and cooperative, which created a positive and enthusiastic atmosphere. It was a beneficial experience for all of us, and we look forward to joining more activities soon.

42 guests had a fabulous meal with 6 Goodgymmers taking different reaponsibilities: food collector, cooks, hosts and pot washer, and making sure it was another successful evening.

On today’s menu was: Potato and parsnip soup with croutons to star; Pumpkin 🎃 and beetroot stew with herby potatoes for the main course, and to finish Yoghurt and fruit salad with crushed maltesers and cookies.
