Voices of Hope
In the midst of the current crisis we shall continue to seek to be a voice of hope to all. We are working closely with Kingston Council and Kingston Voluntary Action. We have been designated responsibility as a central food distribution point for the whole of Kingston borough, with the aim of providing support to the most vulnerable in our community including the homeless, the isolated and those whose income is inadequate to meet their daily needs. We shall be undertaking this for a 12-week period starting on Monday 12th March. Practically, this means: - preparing thousands of hot meals for those unable to do so (10,000 to date!) - preparing packages of essential foodstuffs and basic aid for those who most need them - providing a delivery service to as many of the 18,000 people aged 70+ in Kingston as possible

Voices of Hope provide Brite Boxes to selected members of the community and aim to assist families to cook and eat together. Each week on a Friday 200 of these boxes are moved out for delivery and this is where Goodgym help is needed, they are not heavy but there a lot of them so any help would be fab. The location of the Kingsgate building is down the side of KFC in Kingston just on the opposite wall, there is a buzzer to be let in and the team are on the second floor. For contact about this call Martel 07500 952919
