We were delivering hope on tonight's group run.

What a fun evening supporting Cambridge City Foodbank's Christmas campaign by delivering 300 leaflets to Cambridge residents.

Harriet and I met at Parkside Pools, had a stretch and got lit up before running to the first meeting point (enjoying the Winter Wonderland lights on route). It was an extra challenge running with 300 leaflet packs in our backpacks! Picking up Caroline, we took a run along the river to meet Daiana who had cycled to the task.

After a briefing and some logistics discussions, we split into two groups and got leafleting! The Christmas lights and some beautiful stained glass windows, really brightened the task. The highlight for both groups were the cats that came to help 🐈

After 45 minutes we had delivered all the packs 💪 We shared some leaflet puns for the report title and said our farewells before heading our separate ways and running back to our meeting point.

An uplifting task with lots of time to catch up while doing good. We go again next week 🙌

It felt very autumnal at this morning's parkrun and we enjoyed a lap of the course through the woods and crunching leaves on the way to our marshalling points.

Marshalling was a perfect first volunteer role for Daiana who is a pro at motivating runners having supported a number of races 📣

We kept spirits high as runners and walkers completed the course, and then lifted our own spirits with delicious cake and a chat when all the excitement was over. Exactly the kind of balance we love 🍰

This week, we returned to Castle School and continued our mission to clear up their green spaces. 🌱

We set to work de-weeding the borders around the driveway, tidying up and sweeping away the leaves that have started to fall with the change of season. 🍂

This week, we were overjoyed to welcome Daiana, Andrew and Kei 😃 So as well as all the digging, we had a lovely time chatting and getting to know one another. We made a great team and between us filled 2 wheelie bins with green waste! ♻️
