Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by York runner
York and District Indoor Bowls Club have closed their doors for the moment and don't know yet when they'll be reopening. One of their team, Roy, was looking for a good cause to donate their surplus food stock to (many boxes of crisps and cans of drink).
In a classic piece of partnership working...
Now, here's the logistical bit. Roy couldn't get the donations there himself so we set up a GoodGym relay with Lizzie and I collecting all the stock in the evening, and helping Craig load up his cargo bike to deliver to Carecent, who accept donations between 8am and 9am.
Lizzie and I were not convinced that Craig would fit the boxes on his bike and were primed and ready to bungee additional boxes onto our own bikes too, but I had provided Craig with the measurements and he was confident.
He was right to be, the boxes fitted perfectly and Carecent were super happy.

This will improve the access to a dedicated green space for autistic children and young adults . Many struggle to leave the home due to high anxiety. This wild place can give them to space to relax and garden with their families.
