Report written by Anji Andrews (she/her)
It’s been a while since we climbed the great hill of Westgate but needs must and we did so tonight to lend a hand to FoodCycle with another great leaflet drop.
It was an all-walking task tonight with all four GoodGymers choosing to do the task together. Lucy had run from home to the start point and arrived in a super-quick time. Kudos! Thankfully the weather was cool and dry and we had perfect letter box conditions for the job.
We have been helping to drop over 1000 leaflets in and across Newcastle and Gateshead to spread the word of the brilliant work FoodCycle do at a number of locations, tonight of course being Westgate. We know this area pretty well now after previous leaflet tasks and the job was done in no time. We managed to cover four and a half streets in just 30 minutes feeling accomplished (and hungry thanks to the many food establishments in the area!) before heading back to base.
Louise is leading the final part of this job on Thursday night in Byker if you fancy getting involved. It’s a great way to get your steps in and a sociable way to grab another good deed.
We cook and host a FREE meat-free 3 course meal for anyone in the community who wishes to join us.
