Once Tracey and I found our way into Brixton Rec by making faces at the team indoors through the window, we got to work on a number of tasks. Removing some yellowed leaves from otherwise good veg, counting and stacking food to go out to community groups, and unloading/counting/distributing new food coming in.

It's a big job to move the many kilos of veg, fruit, tins and other food stuff around. I may have over estimated my strength and skill at one point, when the fully-loaded roll cage I was pushing up a ramp hit an edge and sent several kilos of brussel sprouts flying! The team quickly tracked them all down though, so no harm done.

Healthy Living was really grateful that GoodGym was able to help 'spr'out and would welcome any help in the new year :)
