Today 3 of us GoodGymers ran to the Gurdwara in Adamsdown, to help the fab organisation Food for Life.

If you're unaware of what Food For Life Wales does, it seeks to ensure that no one in South Wales goes hungry or is malnourished. They manage a volunteer-based distribution network that offers wholesome, plant-based meals for anyone experiencing food poverty or struggling to meet their nutritional needs. They've been active in the South Wales region for over 20 years!

Usually we help to prepare or pack meals. Now, they are moving to new premises where they'll be preparing their delicious meals. This time, they needed a hand to do a deep clean before they start up with meal prep in another week or so. Our task for the day was to wipe down with super-duper disinfectant over 50 chairs! So we donned rubber gloves, armed ourselves with spray bottles, and scrubbed away at the grime which was making the light gray chairs even grayer.

And what a difference it made! The photos don't do the job justice, but it was very rewarding by the end. With a final mop of the floor, we were through. Now when volunteers go to help FFL chop veg, scoop rice and seal meal tubs, they know what they're sitting on, will be clean and hygienic.

Thanks Imy, Flo and Ellen!
