Report written by Gwyn Williams
Tracey and Gwyn went to DRS to meet our old and new friends there. Our first chat was with Charlie, who told us that the Sports Day had been moved because of heavy rain forecast for tomorrow and Saturday. Many GoodGymers loved last year's event; it would be lovely to see you at this year's again! After an unusual English session where we talked about physics, we were ready to go. Tracey found a woman (not one of the refugees) collapsed in the Ladies who was the "worse for wear". We broke in and she revived after insisting that she wanted a wee and a dog coat! What an adventure. We finished off with a run in the park along the river.
DRS are part of a grassroots movement working to provide aid and support to refugees. Starting in August 2015, in response to the ever increasing refugee crisis
