Not a supermarket deal, but 3 volunteers for 1 drop off was what became of this session.
We have been helping out GROAD at Old Alleynian Rugby Club for two months now and over all the Sundays, there has been probably 2 Sundays that were busy (4-5 drop offs). Since the beginning of the year, it's been quite quiet. Unfortunately, this was the situation today too. Joao, Olivia and Sam (who was slightly late) arrived to one drop off that had already been made during the day.
After chatting with Olivia and catching up with Joao, Sam decided to call it a day after 30 minutes and allowed Olivia and Joao to make the most of their afternoon as they cycled away. Sam waited for Fran (GROAD volunteer) to arrive with her car and collect the solitary bag. Upon reflection, this session should have been for one person and this feedback was given back to Andrea (GROAD founder) who thinks a drop-off box/storage container and no one manning could be a future solution.
I would like to thank Olivia for coming for her first GoodGym session and can promise you it's more active than what happened today. Big thanks to Joao for showing up too!
