Four GoodGymmers joined Dons Local Action Group (DLAG) with the setup for their 5th anniversary, transforming the venue with vibrant yellow and blue decorations. The challenge was to ensure there were enough chairs for the 200 attendees with spaces to move around. Once that was sorted, we embraced the opportunity for creative expression, arranging plates, napkins, and the classic afternoon tea pairing of clotted cream and jam.
A brilliant task for a Sunday afternoon and it was great to meet Keith.
We are a local network of volunteers initially formed in response to the COVID-19 crisis and now permanent across Merton, Wandsworth and Kingston. We aim to help those in our local community to fight poverty and offer support. We provide food parcels, household goods, furniture and appliances. We also offer laptops through our Keep Kids Connected initiative for children who do not have access to online learning.
