A different kind of propping
1 GoodGymer made their way to help their local community in Redbridge.

Rather than propping up the scrum on the rugby pitch, Dan has been very busy propping up local charities since the lock-down. As a starter a clothing collection was organised, with the main focus of supplying male clothing to Project Malachi, for a hostel for their tenants. The overwhelming amount of clothing donated means there is a supply for more than just the men - clothing & shoes have been sorted last weekend.
So when the call came in that a pregnant woman in her early 20's had been evicted from a property and was in need of assistance, Dan dropped her off some food supplies and dashed down to Bancroft to collect a selection of clothing to help her back on her feet
