Good things do come to an end so a month working with St Hilda’s East to deliver lunch meals to local elderly and homebound residents.

It was wet and windy again today but the sweet treats at St Hilda’s and the urge to run and cycle a community mission was too strong.

After my shift I treated myself to a wander around the Old Spitalfields market. It’s all change there since my youth.

It’s been an epic month connecting with our local elderly with Goodgym Tower Hamlets.

Thanks Lyndsey for the delicious chocolates and the Jenni and Beverley at St Hilda's East Community Centre for letting us share in the good deeds.

Together we have worked wonderfully well together to help tackle deprivation and raise awareness of issues which affect those facing social exclusion in the community.

I didn’t say goodbye to any of our recipients today. I prefer walking away with a big smile.
