6 GoodGym runners ran to The Orchard, a sheltered living space in Combe Down. We gave the staff and residents some really appreciated help doing these manual tasks. The furniture we built can now be used by the residents to enjoy the stunning views and it is also a fantastic place for family and friends to sit when they visit.

We managed to assemble a whopping 11 garden chairs and 2 large garden tables in our time there. We worked in pairs to create the chairs - the hardest part was making tightening the bolts to make sure the arms were solid and stable! We then all worked together to create the two big tables.

Thanks in particular to Mary for helping to source and organise this task with us with the others at The Orchard. We look forward to coming back soon!
