The beautiful sunset over Trafalgar Square was the backdrop for our GoodGym session last night. We just had time to soak it up before the Rhythms of Life crew turned up and we were put to straight to work!
It was great to see GoodGymer Clare bring along the Six Senses team for their first session - brilliant to have you join us! Also lovely to have Kisanet from Westminster and Susan from Richmond with us, especially as with 50 guests waiting to be served dinner it was all hands on deck!
We all took our station, serving hot soup, fruit, sandwiches and savoury goods, bread, hot drinks and crisps. Soon the queue was moving and the guests were enjoying the selection. Rhythms of Life is an amazing charity which provides vital food and other resources to rough sleepers in central London. We will be helping them out regularly with this task, which makes a real impact in the community.
Next week we really need help with a session sorting donations at a centre for refugees - at the moment there is only one person signed up so if you can make it then you'd be really making a difference! You can find out the details and sign up here. Hope to see you there!
Thanks for all your help last night everybody, with so many people served hot food, it was an evening well spent.
