Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Alice Dalrymple
Emily and I had a busy morning at St Luke's lunch project, making up and packing boxes for 44 families. Once all the boxes were made up we then had the task of identifying which boxes needed craft packs and extra fresh vegetables. The time zoomed by and we finished just in the nick of time (and got a proper workout in the process).
We managed to squeeze in some extra good after we left by delivering a box to a family who weren't able to come down to the church. It was a great morning and we both felt like we really made a positive impact. Good stuff :-)
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.
