Help sort surplus food and fight against food waste with City Harvest
Time for our monthly community mission to help City Harvest!
WHAT IS CITY HARVEST?
City Harvest helps put surplus food to good use in a sustainable way by distributing to organisations around London that feed the hungry. By volunteering with City Harvest for a couple of hours on your weekend, you will make a direct positive impact on thousands of vulnerable people in London. Because of your efforts, these people - who face obstacles including food poverty, homelessness, domestic abuse and the need to flee from their homelands – will have access to a nutritious meal. The food that is rescued would have gone to landfill where it would have released harmful greenhouse gases as it decomposed. So your days’ work will make a tremendous difference to both people and the planet!
WHAT TO EXPECT
For the task you'll be volunteering as a warehouse assistant where you will help unload food deliveries, sort food, check food, and do other general warehouse jobs to help in the day-to-day running of City Harvest.
Please dress sensibly for the day as it will involve lifting and organising trays of food. Wearing closed shoes is advisable. We will provide you with high visibility jackets and any other safety clothing.
WHERE TO MEET
The site is in Acton (Unit 8, Acton Park Industrial Estate, Acton, W3 7QE) and as always with GoodGym we encourage you to use the power of your legs to get you there! Upon arrival, please make your way onto the industrial estate and follow the signs to Unit 8. The main entrance is via Eastman Road off of The Vale.
The task is set from 10am-12pm so please stay for as long as you can, you if want to come a bit earlier they are there for volunteers from 9am!

Litter-ally trollied!
With the dark nights coming in, we met a bit earlier than usual for a litter pick around Ealing Broadway.
We split up into three picking crews and set to work, covering Haven Green and the surrounding streets and towards Walpole park.
The fantastic effort of the three teams got us three bags of litter in just 45 mins, leaving Ealing a little bit cleaner!
Ben, Milly and Mira certainly got the most interesting finds of the evening, coming across a shopping trolley and a post box taking a lie down!
We couldn't leave the evening without celebrating Mira reaching 50 good deeds! 🥳 Give her a cheer!

Litter pick around Ealing Broadway
Tonight we are meeting for a quick litter pick around the Ealing Broadway area, it will help the environment and make it a nicer place for everyone living here.
It'll also give everyone a chance to see GoodGym out in action!
Please bring gloves (the gardening kind work well!) and hand gel, and we'll provide litter pickers.
Meet at the end of Spring Bridge Mews at 6:30pm
