Share the love

Two GoodGymers Marie-Noëlle & Petra hosted a community foodbank stall outside of Waitrose in Surbiton, to collect food & other essentials items for their local foodbank DLAG.

We suggest an items list, shoppers add a little extra in their shopping basket and dropped it with us on their way out. Donations includes tinned fish, pulses, sauces, rice, cereals, biscuits, etc. GoodGymer Emily popped by to dropped some donations.

We had a great morning despite the freezing temperature, and thanks to the many generous donors, we collected a total of 9 boxes of food. This will make all the difference for these struggling lives!
