What's going to get us back to Group Runs? Anything that might help fight that 'rona!

With this, and the potentially life saving impact the vaccine will have, we helped out at the vaccine distribution centre at Steam again.

There's a whole range of roles available - Mike and Alexandra helped with car park marshalling, whereas Gaby was meeting-and-greeting at the entrance.

Many people were extremely grateful for our help, particularly in the close to freezing temperatures. The sun and people's smiles kept us more than warm though.

Stuart also helped out earlier in the week.

There's plenty of opportunities to get involved with efforts at steam. Keep an eye out for more community missions soon!
