Despite the deluge outside 4 Good Gymmers came to assist Frenford Food Bank. Linda and James arrived a bit early and as everything they needed was set up ready they didn't wait for instructions and made an early start. Just as well we started early as the task owner was held up for over an hour and a half.
A big welcome to Angela who completed her first mission today she did a great job and is looking forward to doing more.
We also welcomed Ben who was a bonus late sign up, its never too late to join the food bank sessions they wont turn down a willing pair of hands.
Between GG and the Frenford volunteers we finished packing, started restocking shelves and organised one of the deliveries before the task owner(Irfan) arrived.
Irfan thanked us for carrying out the instructions in his message which was weird as we hadn't seen his message. Turns out we carried out all he wanted us to do without being told...thats how good we are 😁
By the time the drivers started arriving the rain had cleared and we helped load their cars then all had a much drier journey home.
Good Job Good Gymmers. 👍🏻
