The Change of the Light Brigade
2 GoodGymers made their way to help the Derby Cathedral in Derby.
- Monday, 2nd of May 2022
- Led by Derby runner
Gwyn and Tracey shed their yellow and pink cycling coats to reveal their red T-shirts and welcomed visitors to Derby Cathedral to view the Peace Doves installation.
Gwyn had the role of clicking the silver clicker that kept count of the number of visitors, and Tracey alternated between two jobs; collecting survey data on the black i-pad, and changing colours of the lighting that illuminated the white paper doves so that they glowed in shades of green, blue and purple.
As well as our planned fitness session (Gwyn cycling in on Little Blue, and Tracey on silver-grey Daisy), we took part in one of the Derby Walking Festival self-guided walks, following the red route on the city circuit map, and enjoyed a drink of orange juice and black tea before volunteering.
Feeling blue that you missed out on this community mission? There are other opportunities before the installation ends on 12th June, complete the survey here to inform the cathedral of your availability.
