Report written by Joel Wiles
8 Westminster GoodGymers ran 7k to make sandwiches for One Big Family Homeless Charity.
Great to have you all along for a massively important task!!
With the nights drawing in earlier the strain on the charities who support the nations homeless population increases and no where is it more evident than in Westminster!!
One Big Family- Victoria are a tiny charity who provide food twice a week to Victoria’s homeless community with its main day being a Wednesday night.
We make such difference by essentially taking care of one week a month of the food preparation to allow the other volunteers to concentrate their efforts on the other 3.
A touristy Run South down to the Ebury Estate states off our evening raking up a solid 3.5k run along the way.
Meeting up a couple of the organisers we set about our task with speed and no less circular cutting precision!!
Bagging 80 pastries while wearing rubber gloves is no easy feat not to mention buttering 7 loads of bread, pate spreading and cheese arranging!!
A slick production line made light work of the task and in 30 efficient minutes we had completed the task!!
The trolley was locked and food loaded for a evening of distribution!!
A sharpe run back to base rounded off a very enjoyable evening!!
Look forward to next week for some more fun on the run!!
Smooth Running
