It was a good day, even though there weren't many donations this week, but everyone was able to take some food home.

Today two goodgymers assisted the VGCC foodbank volunteers prepare for the foodbank service on Friday from 12pm to 2pm, by cutting up vegetables as well as unloading and sorting food deliveries.

Today I assisted the Vauxhall Gardens Comm-Unity Centre foodbank in serving Lambeth residents who were very appreciative

Today we had 3 goodgymers, one of us has completed over 100 deeds, another over 50 deeds and one doing their first ever deed. Wow. We all helped the volunteer team at Vauxhall Gardens Community Centre prepare for tomorrows foodbank. Amazing teamwork.

Today I sorted four crates of carrots 🥕, into usable or bin in preparation for tomorrow's Borough Pantry Club.

This was a fantastic mission, joining forces with a number of Brixton organisations for a community litter pick. Multiple different groups met at different areas of Brixton for a simultaneous clean-up. This was part of a youth-led initiative, set up by young people at the Marcus Liptrot Community Centre, and attended by local residents, borough councillors, police officers - and Goodgymers!

Six Goodgymers, representing Lambeth, Ealing, Croydon and Brent, met in Windrush Square, collected our litter pickers and high-vis, and headed off to St Matthew’s church gardens. After an hour of solid litter-picking we had filled several bags of rubbish. Shout out to Steph who ran 27km to be there, and to Harvey who hit his incredible 1000th mission earlier that same morning! What an achievement!

After our hour was up we headed back to base, and it was amazing to see just how much could be achieved in a short space of time. Well done everyone!
