Mission

Punctures in the sleigh

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Newham.

There was an obvious Christmas spirit in the Royal Docks Pharmacy on the eve of the Big Day, it’s been a pleasure to work with them over the last year and a half.

In the true spirit of a Christmas, once I picked up the large bag of prescriptions, I immediately got a puncture. I fixed this using my puncture kit and cycled for a good 7-8 minutes before I got my second puncture.

It was great to be outside on the back and these setbacks did not dampen the joy of briefly speaking to a very grateful Ms R and delivering her much needed medicine before Christmas. It’s been a pleasure to contribute to our local community with goodgym again this year and I hope everyone seeing and reading this report also feels an immense amount of pride at being part of this movement.

Merry Christmas all
