Groundwork is a federation of charities mobilising practical community action on poverty and the environment across the UK. They are passionate about creating a future where every neighbourhood is vibrant and green, every community is strong and able to shape its own destiny and no-one is held back by their background or circumstances.

Big Local is an initiative from the Local Trust that gave 150 communities a million pounds to use to create lasting change in their area. Entirely resident-led, Big Locals are encouraged to invite representatives from partner agencies to provide help, advice and services to make the best use of the available funding in their community.

The Brinninton Big Local hub is holding a community event in the area and needed a helping hand to spread the word. Our task was to aid them in delivering the leaflets across the area.

So, on foot, 6 GoodGymers, loaded with rucksacks and boundless energy, lept to the challenge. We weaved and meandered the streets of Brinnington to post the leaflets to the community.
