Six GoodGymers from GG Lambeth and Southwark met at St. Faith's Community Centre to assist the GROAD (Get Rid Of And Donate) rough sleepers project.

Many of us came from work or rushed from home after finishing work, so we started slightly later. Yet, within the 45-50 minutes, we packed a dozen or so rough sleeper bags and organised all the other essentials (sleeping bags, duvets, pillows and towels) into bigger bags.

Andrea will pick up the bags in the morning to distribute with GG Westminster on Tuesday night on the Strand.
