4 GoodGymers met one wet and chilly Tuesday evening to clean the Foodbank.

The outdoor weather was soon forgotten though as we warmed up working together to sweep the huge warehouse floor.

Keely and Henry then beautified the admin and front of house areas, cleaning surfaces and vacuuming the carpet while Louise and Mzi got to work with the mops.

We'll be back again first Tuesday in March!

A chilly evening in Colchester was brightened up by some litter picking action around the streets and past the college by six goodgymers. We received some thank you's from passers by, chatted about all kinds of things, and admired the local runners doing reps up the hill. This weekend, whilst drinking tea and eating biscuits indoors - do an hour's birdwatch for the RSPB. Sign up to the task on the website - the perfect goodgym mission!!

On a cold wet January evening 1 GoodGymer turned up to help clean the FoodBank. It felt a daunting task, but with a "Summer Party" playlist (Spotify's suggestion) an hour of sweeping and spot cleaning with the mop passed very quickly. Many thanks to Ricky Martin, Lou Bega and Bananarama for all the motivation!

We're back at the FoodBank first Tuesday of February, hopefully with a bigger team, so we can make sure we clean the whole place to make it nicer for all those hero's who look after those in need each day.
