Two GoodGymers helped leaflet for the new FoodCycle venue in Felling. FoodCycle combats food poverty, loneliness and food waste through free community meals made form food that Supermarkets would have thrown away.
Me and Liz were both equally late due to traffic caused by the road works on the Tyne bridge.
The weather was very wet and rainy with big puddles forming in the streets. We stuck together doing one side of the street and then lopping around, completing cu-de-sacs and coming back on the other side of the road, keeping track of where we had been. After about an hour and around 200 leaflets we arrived back at Felling Community Centre and decided to call it for the night as we were completely soaked!
We still have some leaflets let so look out for a future community mission to help us deliver the rest of them in hopefully better weather!

FoodCycle North EastBringing people together to nourish communities with good food and conversation, through the power of community dining.
FoodCycle community meals bring people together for good food and conversation. We serve free, wholesome meals made from food that would have gone to waste, prepared by volunteers and open to everyone. FoodCycle is about more than food – we create a cycle of positive change – reducing food waste and hunger, tackling loneliness, supporting mental health and encouraging healthy eating and sustainable living.
