Cambridge Community KitchenVolunteer for Cambridge Community Kitchen for the evening while keeping fit. Their mission is simple; deliver free hot food to those who need it every week. Solidarity not charity!
What do I need to do?
Goodgymers will meet at Cambridge Community Kitchen's base at 6.30pm, pick up an insulated bag full of free hot meals, then follow a given route to typically 6 to 10 addresses to deliver the food. We will be doing deliveries on foot, so will start together and then likely split into pairs / small groups.
Deliveries will usually take between 60-90 minutes to complete. We are then invited to join them for a meal afterwards, or take a portion home if you prefer.
You can watch this induction video before you arrive to get a feel for what is involved with delivery: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvwY8OR0RPA
(Please don't worry about the first bit as we'll do the admin on the rota and make sure all relevant information is shared. CCK use Signal app to communicate, but you don't have to download it as we can coordinate comms for the deliveries we do.)
What do I need to bring?
- Fully charged smartphone (any phone, any browser) for the route.
📌 Two ways to join:
- Meet at CCK at 6:30pm for the task
- Meet outside Parkside Pools at 6:10pm for a social run to CCK.
💛 If it is your first time coming to GoodGym you are very welcome here - our friendly GoodGymers will be waiting to say hi!
