Jacquie, Roberta and Everton smashed the dining shift at Friday's Ealing Soup Kitchen, serving baked chicken or veg ratatouille to the clients. A special kudos to Everton, who got himself straight into deep water, rising to the occasion and staying for a part of the very busy shift after his first-ever task in the morning! Well done!

Kash arrived at the Ealing Soup Kitchen at 10 am with her work colleagues and started off the session by peeling off the eyes from potatoes to be given to those clients who had the facilities to cook. In the Soup Kitchen, nothing gets wasted, so the removed sprouts would be taken to a compost bin by Steve, one of the regular volunteers.
Jacquie came shortly after, sporting her brand new black t-shirt - a reward for her 50 good deeds! We mean GoodGym deeds only here, as Jacquie has also been involved in many other fantastic volunteering initiatives, including LAGER Can, parkrun, and Horsenden Hill, to name a few.
It was great to see Roberta back after a short break! She's nearing 50 good deeds too, only 5 tasks away from her own black t-shirt after this morning's Soup Kitchen shift. Together with Jacquie, Roberta served tea, coffee and biscuits to the clients at the tea station and made everyone feel welcome with her smile.
Finally, today's session was a debut from our newest GoodGymer - and a true trendsetter when it comes to way of getting to the tasks! Everton has proven that you can not only walk, run or cycle to do good, but also skateboard! There are no limits to getting active while doing good!
Everton joined Kash at the food parcels where their goal was to test the limits of how many mushrooms, tangerines and potatoes could be fitted into grocery bags for the clients. The conclusion was that there were no limits as the volunteers successfully squeezed in all the surplus. Remember: nothing should be wasted at the Soup Kitchen. We're still wondering about how many people would try cooking jacket potatoes with tangerine topping.
Everton might have expected a more physical aspect of GoodGym, but at the end of today's morning shift, he's been fully engaged with the sport that famously exercises the brain! He played chess with a couple of clients, including Mark, who, as rumours said, last week had defeated all four players with whom he had played games simultaneously! Well done Everton for taking the challenge from the Soup Kitchen's own chess master!
