Pudding the world to rights
19 GoodGymers made their way to help the Oxford Mutual Aid in Oxford.
- Wednesday, 16th of December 2020
- Led by Anwen Greenaway
Tonight a smaller but mighty GoodGym team delivered 25 food parcels to people all over Oxford. We even sent out our first turkey dinners and christmas puddings. With our volunteer numbers dropping a little in the run up to Christmas it's heartwarming to see the team pull together to ensure all the supplies make it to the people who need them. Many of our groups did double deliveries, making a big difference to the number of adults and children we were able to reach. Tonight between packing and deliveries we helped around 50 adults and and 5 children and babies.
We reached an exciting GoodGym Oxford milestone tonight - hitting the grand total of 2000 Good Deeds since we launched back in February 2019. Amazingly, 1275 of those Good Deeds were done in 2020. THAT'S how you respond to a global pandemic!
Welcome Mat - hope you enjoyed your first experience of GoodGym!
