We may have lacked in numbers this evening, but this was certainly made up for by enthusiasm! To everyone's relief, we weren't doing door-to-door letter box drops, but finding community boards across the the city to post flyers for Home-Start's next volunteer training course.

Team DJ (Dave and Jen) headed west towards Gunwharf and covered around 4.5 miles, stopping at 11 venues along the way.

Meanwhile, Sammy and Vicki (team name tbc) headed east and confused plenty of supermarket staff asking for the locations of their community boards. Vicki also did a bit of leaflet collecting for her work, whilst Sam had a bit of a social after bumping into a friend on their travels.

We all managed to rendezvous on our way back to base at Fratton, and had a relaxed and chatty walk home. Great job, guys!

Area Activator for GoodGym Portsmouth. I swear like a sailor, burp like a foghorn. Human A - Z of Portsmouth. Ultimately charming.
