Birmingham

Community mission

Fill yer Boots!

3 GoodGymers made their way to help the The Active Wellbeing Society (TAWS) in Birmingham.

  • Francesca Morelli
  • Tousif
  • Naneesh Soor

Led by Tousif

It’s Easter Sunday, but like everyone going through the most bizarre holiday, for our three goodgymers it was another day of giving rather than rest. Tousif and Naneesh again drove down to Ladywood and filled the boots of their cars with vital supplies of food for vulnerable people around the city. For Francesca it was her first one and indeed her first Community Mission with GoodGym!

Faster Sunday

Francesca delivered food parcels to 7 homes this morning in East Birmingham! The weather was nice and everyone was in good spirits.

Naneesh had drops way out in Kitts Green but only 5 bags and 4 stops today.

Tousif did 9 drops with 12 bags altogether. He went the extra mile as he went back after completing his route to do another as the last driver had not shown up. He has shown more dedication than Roy Castle!

All three are doing another round of drops tomorrow on Bank Holiday Monday. Go give them a cheer for going above and beyond.
