We came and boxed up dozens of Brite Boxes of food for families of children in the borough which was a direct result of the great work of one of our great Lions - Marcus Rashford! It was a good work out for us too!

I made my way to Kingston Gate Church to help the other volunteers with Bright Boxes - I completed a 5k walk there this time!

Bright boxes are a fab idea! They are boxes which provide ingredients and recipes to local families, to enable them to cook healthy meals.

I spent the time making up boxes with another volunteer, we chatted and joked about our high efficiency... and joked about turning it into a career.

Task went well and I look forward to getting involved again in future! 😁

I started this mission by trying to locate a bus stop (it was suppose to be a run or walk... but long story).

I made my way to Kingston Gate Church to help the other volunteers move Bright Boxes.

Bright boxes are a fab idea! They are boxes which provide ingredients and recipes to local families, to enable them to cook healthy meals. They get a nutritionist seal of approval from me!

On arrival I provided with hand sanitiser and a thermometer. Hand sanitised and a temperature of 36.4 °C, I was then able to get stuck in!

I helped move some of the boxes and got stuck in with making up empty boxes for next weeks boxes (and chatted away...).

I really enjoyed being involved in this, we had a great production line going and I look forward to returning in the future!

On a hot and sweaty Friday we were glad to find the lift working at the Voices of Hope Centre for us to help move boxes from the third floor down to the ground floor and load them into the vans for their delivery. It was amazing to see the mountains of boxes stacked up to be given to those most vulnerable people in need of food in Kingston. We are grateful to help such a fantastic project to pack boxes of food for families in our area. Come out to join us next Friday where more help will be needed! 💪🏼📦

A rainy cycle over to Kingston to help Voices of Hope (VoH) at KingsGate Church. A straightforward task, helping the team shift many boxes of donated food from their lobby into their food stores two storeys up. VoH will use this as best they can to cook up fresh meals for the most vulnerable in the borough.

I cycled over to KingsGate Church to help the Voices of Hope team finish packing and shift 200 of their 'Brite Boxes' down a few floors (via a lift!) for collection. These boxes are ferried to selected members of the community and aim to assist families to cook and eat healthy meals together with all the ingredients and a recipe book ready to go! We managed to create a smooth chain process from the 2nd floor to the lobby, ensuring they were ready for the many drivers collecting their batches. A successful mission with a lovely team - I look forward to being back.
