Two Bristol Good Gym'ers flexed their muscles to move a community food provider's stock from a room that was in danger of damp. The weather threatened rain but stayed dry while we hefted, heaved, and trollied boxes of nutritious food. With help from others, we got the job done quickly enough to allow time for some rearranging of toys and clothes for the users of the venue.

St Luke's Lunch Project
Supporting families in need in Barton Hill

We usually provide a school holiday lunch club and activities during the school holidays for disadvantaged families, since Covid we've been offering food hampers. St Luke's Church Most of the time the families come and collect the food, which most prefer as they get to choose their food. We've been offering more and more food, for which some families have struggled to carry over to their cars or to walk back to their home (less than 10-15min walk). We don't have a large team of volunteers so can't help everyone with the carrying.
