4 GoodGymers got together in the pouring rain to support FoodCycle to leaflet in Seacroft to promote their fabulous work to make food poverty, loneliness and food waste a thing of the past.
FoodCycle Leeds connect communities, reducing loneliness and food poverty – working with thousands of volunteers and surplus food to help everyone who needs them. By creating welcoming spaces for people from all walks of life to meet, eat and have conversations, and by offering a weekly telephone check-in and chat, they are supporting people’s health and mental wellbeing.

York Report written by Barbara Griffin
We met Liz, one of the teachers, on a damp Saturday afternoon at Manor CE Academy (very conveniently only 1km from home) to help tidy up their allotment area.
It was lovely to have visiting GoodGymer Pippafrom Hounslow joining us today - sorry about the rain! 🌧️
Nick started weeding and tidying the herb garden (which mostly involved moving old car tyres) whilst the rest of us started clearing the weeds from around the base of the raised beds.
With most of the weeding done, Liz asked us if we could construct another compost heap using wooden pallets and various planks of wood. Although destruction is probably our favourite task, we like the challenge of a bit of construction occasionally and soon we were all gathering materials (including a couple of breeze blocks) for our construction.
Being told
use whatever you want
was music to our ears! Soon we had created a fine structure, reinforced at the side with a concrete hedgehog ornament! 🦔
A great job which will help transform this area into a really useful resource for the school and local community.
