41% of all children are living in poverty in our local area who wouldn't otherwise receive a Christmas present
2 miles covered delivering the leaflets in Chiswick
50 huge good deeds for the fabulous Alanna!
The fabulous That's A Wrap charity collects donations of toys every year to give them to children who wouldn't otherwise receive presents at Christmas, and we couldn't be happier to help them spread the word and appeal for more donations!
It was a pretty chilly night in Hounslow, so we did a quick warm up and after a quick discussion where we discovered I didn't know how to pronounce some basic street names (thanks for not laughing tooo much), set off for a route whch aimed to cover as many houses as humanely possible. It was a great effort from everybody, and we soon were getting through the leaflets like we were on fire (except, strangely, for Alan's, whose pile seemed to keep multiplying).
After managing to get through all two packs - a brilliant 500 leaflets! - we set off to the green to do an intense pyramid speed session which really tested our endurance and speed and blew the cobwebs away. Absolutely brilliant running and super form everyone.
See you next week when we will be writing tags which will be attached to the donated presents. You can sign up here for some festive fun!
And an extra cheer for Alanna on her 50 good deeds - hip hip hooray!
