Since London is currently under Tier 4 restrictions, we are not able to commit to our annual Christmas collection group runs.

However, we can still help out in pairs, in accordance to Government guidance.

Hey all! Feel free to add your photos / write-ups to the report, but then click 'Save as Draft' rather than 'Publish' - that way our run reports won't overwrite this sign-up page until the mission is over on Jan 20th!
