Who this task will support

FoodCycle Bow Road

FoodCycle Bow Road meets every Friday evening at Bow Road Methodist Church for a free, hot, community meal- anyone is welcome to share food and conversation with us, no questions asked. Our volunteers create tasty and nutritious meals from donated surplus food that otherwise would have gone to waste, and we serve our meals and share in conversation with our guests, who come from all parts of the community.

Background

'FoodCycle Bow Road hosts free, sit-down, community meals made from surplus food that would otherwise go to waste. They do this every Friday at 7.00pm at Bow Road Methodist Church. Volunteers share in food and conversation with anyone who needs it. They'd love your help to spread the word and make sure the whole community knows about the fantastic free community meals!'

Task Force regular Ivy is a regular FoodCycle volunteer and so when the opportunity to deliver 1000 leaflets came up, Ivy took the lead and made a great start with this task.

We plan to blitz the remaining leaflets in this Monday evening task, which will set a terrific tone for the week ahead, clocking km as we spread the word.

What will we be doing?

Meeting Ivy and Laura outside the Methodist Church Tower Hamlets at 7.00pm.
Putting GoodGym fitness to good use as we distribute the remaining leaflets in the area, for this project. You'll be popping leaflets through doors in the residential roads around FoodCycle Bow Road - this will have a massive impact in making sure those that can benefit from free meals do not fall through the net.
This task usually takes around an hour, often less, if previous GoodGym leafleting speed is anything to go by.
