Bright Morning Star Prisons and Homeless Outreach help to rebuild, support and elevate the lives of the most vulnerable people on the street and at their Walk-In Centres. They provide basic and immediate physical and emotional help to the public, and provide a free counselling service.

We've been asked to help with transporting leftovers from Pret A Manger, St John’s Road, Clapham, SW11 1PX to Lola who distributes the food at 3 Hermes Court, Southey Road, SW9 0PF. Here's a map - it's a 5km run/ride.

Please arrive by 5pm - they will be closed after that! If you go in and say you're collecting food for Bright Morning Star Prison and Homeless Outreach, they should give you the leftovers! There may be quite a lot so just take what you can :)


🎒Please bring a backpack/panniers to transport the food (plastic bags might be useful too as the bags the pastries etc are in can be greasy!).

🤿Please bring a mask to wear in the shop

We need 3 people to sign up to transport the food - you can either run or ride, together or separately. If there are any problems, please call Lola from Bright Morning Star on ‭07946 288144‬.

Any questions? Email me 👉 markgilyead@goodgym.org

Thank you 🙏 and hope it goes well!

Hi Julia, Thanks for waiting around and sorry because I wasn't told about the later time change. I'll check that the future times are correct! Hopefully Cat will turn up soon but otherwise just take what you can. Thank you!
