This was out second Community Mission this week getting RAMMuseum activity packs delivered to shielding families! AMAZING work team!

It's been a blustery week with lots of heavy downpours here in Exeter but nothing could stop our super keen GoodGymers from getting fit whilst doing good! We had a fantastic collections of runs, walks and bike rides to get the pack delivered to different families all over Exeter and Exminster.

All deliveries where carried out in a safe way, following the government's current guidelines. In total we had 7 GoodGymers involved in this task, but all runners did their deliveries in solo sessions and at no time where all runners gathered together in a big group.

Lucy and Jo clocked some pretty impressive bike rides to do their deliveries, Florence ran all over St Thomas and the very hilly Exwick for hers and Sarah struggled through a huge rain storm. Fantastic effort!

A huge thank you to RAMM who put together these packs, Exeter Wellbeing who contacted us to see if we could help out with the delivery and to the Westbank who helped us find the families who can benefit from the packs!

Next week we are heading out again, this time to do a litterpick in Wonford. I can't wait to see you then!
