After 18 months of GoodGym delivering ‘Roasts on the Road’ to isolated and vulnerable people in Odd Down, today the group was back enjoying a sit down meal at St Philip and St James Church.

GoodGymmers Richard and Ruth still took a handful of dinners out to housebound members and were invited back to tuck in to a roast dinner as a thank you for the charity’s contribution during lockdown. Only Ruth took them up on the offer - Richard missed out on some delicious roasties and apple pie.

It was a bit emotional in the church hall as the vicar expressed his thanks for the team’s help but a cup of tea rounded it off nicely.

Please pass on that thanks to all GoodGymmers who stepped in to brighten up Odd Downers’ Sundays over such difficult months.
