Report written by Sam Lefevre (he/him)
Adam, Ceiling and Sam met at the Food Cooperative at Borough (St. George the Martyr) to help Adam and co. with sorting out stock they had received from putting ready meals and single cream into the fridge to checking on the tomatoes to see if they were fresh.
We got an extra task today with a bit of a walk. We walked to Hatfield near Southwark to The Marketing Studio as they had food to give to the cooperative. Unfortunately, their Christmas party was cancelled and thus, they had an excess of Coco Di Mama pastas and sandwiches to give away. We hauled them all the way back to Borough. By the time, we had arrived we had to leave, but not before taking some freebies and getting in the customary GoodGym group photo (a Christmassy one 😉)
The food cooperative provides members with low cost food to help reduce food bills and tackle food insecurity. It also reuses surplus food to prevent food being thrown away.
