Report written by Sevan
Travellers and local GoodGymers met Sevan at Ealing Food Bank in Hanwell. Once a frequent GoodGym task location, it was good to be back in the familar car park and litter magnet that is the Food Bank entrance.
Sevan was joined by Cherian, who was joining them for a whole day of Ealing Good, essential Food Bank key holder, Shan and John who found himself in Hanwell on the way to an FA Cup match. Shan also brought some black bags which were double the normal size, which made them hard to handle. The fifth member, Kash, brought the litter pickers and luckily a roll of blue LAGER Can bags too.
It was a litter pick like many others and also unlike most others as there weren't too many beer cans and bottles. Most of the waste was either snack food packaging from the nearby bus stop or disposable gloves from the petrol station across the road. Lots and lots of gloves 🧤
Lots of small bits of litter were collected to fill 2 LAGER Can bags and half of a giant black sack, leaving the Food Bank looking much more welcoming for its volunteers and clients.
We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK.
