6 Goodgymers from the Luton team supported Foodcycle this evening, covering lots of different tasks including, food collection, kitchen team, pot washer and hosts. Despite the food donations being very minimal this week, the team were able to provide a 3 course meal for 36 guests making the most of the limited veg, fruit and bread, with a few store cupboard staples. Carrot soup was followed by a vegetable pasta dish, with garlic bread and a fruit salad with cake for dessert. Lots of plates came back clean, so we're confident the meal was enjoyed and appreciated. Great work everyone. 👏 👍🏻 👌 💪 🙌

We teamed up with Friends of Leagrave Park for our monthly litter pick. Thank you to Pastor Charmaine, Martin, Dave and Omar, plus other members of the community, we managed to make the park that bit prettier. Amongst the haul was a particular tortoise, a ‘message’ in a bottle and the famous drum kit.

Let’s hope that the tortoise is still breathing, wherever he may be.

3 Luton Goodgymers met with Konni from FoPP/Edible Hightown to do a litterpick IN the River Lea behind bide-a-while. This stretch of the river had dried up in recent weeks so we were able to get in and get to some rubbish that we wouldn't have been able to, had the water been flowing. Some of the litterpick bingo items found on this occaison, were a bicycle, a children's tricycle, a kissing gate and a large sheet of corrugated iron. There were also 6 bags of litter and 3 bags of recycling ♻️.
It was a lovely hour well spent on a Sunday morning. Well done team 👏 👏 👏
