Spreading kindness, one food box at a time

Four GoodGym Leeds runners, Rachel Carol Suzie and Gemma plus one GoodGym tourist (Jade), headed to The Real Junk Food Project bright and early today to help pack as many food boxes as possible for families across Leeds.

Within 30 minutes of arriving, we had been given our induction, donned our flourescent jackets, and were in the Kindness warehouse, packing boxes with fruit, veg, treats and gifts, ready for delivery. We created a brilliant production line ! Time seemed to fly by and before we knew it, we had been there for 5 hours and had packed over 500 boxes! It was a great community mission as not only did we help make this Christmas a little easier for families, but we also had a work out - carrying crates, squishing boxes and walking around the warehouse .

I am already looking forward to going back to TRJFP so that I can help again. I am sure that the other GoodGym runners are also be keen to support TRJFP as their work to prevent food going to waste is essential, especially at the moment!
