Belgrave Revisited
2 GoodGymers made their way 5.1km to help the Leicestershire Partnership Trust - NHS in Leicester.

Back to Belgrave today to continue the mission to encourage local residents to get a coronavirus test.
We heard in the briefing that 188 people came to Belgrave Neighbourhood Centre for a test yesterday thanks to the door knocking volunteers. Another mobile testing site has been added on Hildyard Road where we met today at the Gujarati Arya Community Centre. There were around twice as many volunteers today and a fantastic response from the residents we spoke to so hopefully plenty more people will be booking a test to help track down the virus in this part of the city.
We even had people stopping us in the streets asking for directions to the testing stations, great to see the impact we are having in real time!
