One GoodGymer supported at LWS Night Shelter in Leamington Spa with their Reverse Advent Calendar campaign, helping to sort donations for homeless and vulnerably-housed people.
There was a lot of sorting to be done of the generous donations that the lovely people of Leamington had kindly donated. Once this was all separated into respective food types, it was then a case of loading up the van and transporting it to a nearby storage facility for future distribution to LWS guests - either as food parcels or as part of their regular hot meal service on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening.
More than 10,000 steps were clocked up with the constant walking backwards and forwards to vehicles and different parts of the church hall, so it was a good workout too!
Our Mission Statement is “to provide a hot meal, a safe place to sleep and company for the homeless and vulnerably-housed members of the community in Leamington Spa and the wider area”.
