Goodgym Islington returned to the Ringcross Community Centre Foodbank this evening for our first cycling delivery session of 2021. Steve and Simon were joined by first timers to the task: Marie Laure, Oisin and Louis.

Lindsey, the project coordinator, gave us a pre-prepared list of names and addresses for food bank clients (some who are isolating, others who are looking after children whilst working full-time), and we set about loading our rucksacks and pannier bags with food and essential items. All of these households were within a 2 mile total cycle from the Ringcross Centre, and all of our packing and loading is now done outside.

10 deliveries were made to Islington households tonight- each one of these containing at least 3 full bags of shopping. Wonderful work everyone!
