Pick, pack, stack, repeat!
2 GoodGymers made their way to help the East End Women in Newcastle.
- Thursday, 8th of October 2020
- Led by Newcastle runner
The well oiled machine that is GoodGym Newcastle (today represented by Liz and Louise) together with the well oiled machine that is the East End Women’s food bank, (today represented by Nancy) once again made light work of packing 48 bags of ambient food ready for delivery later in the week. We also organised the already packed bags of fresh and ambient food, toiletries, sanitary wear and dog food and loaded them into the wonderful volunteer delivery drivers’ cars. We had no cat food available today so some of the cats in Walker have been treated to tuna this week! Early in the task I lost my glasses but was delighted when one of the drivers brought them back for me later, having found them in one of the food bags! Maybe there’s something in the idea of starting a spectacles bank next!
