Weighing it up
25 GoodGymers made their way 6.5km to help the The Norwich Food Bank in Norwich.

We had our biggest turn out since pre-covid with a whopping 25 GoodGymers opting to help sort out donations at the Norwich Foodbank.
This was bolstered by 8 people experiencing their 1st (of many hopefully) good deeds with GoodGym, so a massive welcome to Ruth, Jess, Harriet, Claudia, Amber, Claire, Jennifer B and Stephen K.
For those that decided to meet at The Forum first, we had a 3.5km each way jog to the task, with Jen J kindly being the backrunner.
Keith (warehouse manager) soon split us up into small groups of various tasks, which included weighing crates and sorting through golden syrup donations and putting them in date order.
25 people helping out for 50 minutes nearly equated to nearly 24 volunteering hours, just incredible!
At the end we surprised Elizabeth with her Sean Coxhead award trophy.
Next week we're having a games night with tenants at Hayden Court Retirement Home.
