On Sunday morning four goodgymers set off around Byker to deliver information postcards, to help get the word out about Reviving the Heart of the West End. The aim of this brilliant charity is to see people in jobs they love, being their own boss, or employing more people as a result of their business growing.

We mostly stuck together as a group me and Miranda doing one side of the road, Katie and Charlotte doing the other. We did get a bit split up at one point as me and Miranda took a diversion down a side street to get a few more houses in and I got distracted by a very cute cat, he wasn’t that interested in the leaflets though! Distracting animal aside (including a couple of other cute cats and a very yappy dog) we managed to deliver a respectable 200 postcards in 40 minutes!

Well done Charlotte who completed her first community mission – give her a cheer! If you would like you get involved join Louise in two weeks time to help deliver another 200 postcards for this great charity, this time in the West End and Central area of the city.
