Report written by Tabitha Skinner
It was a pretty Freezing night but that didn't put off Samina, Lizzie, Harvey and Tabitha who met outside Papagayo in Willesden Green, ready for Goodgym Brent's last goodgym of the year! It had snowed the night before, and the roads were snow and icy in patches. We took extra special care, jogging carefully the 3km to Granville Kitchen, and stopping to walk whenever there was ice on the path.
We made it to Granville where Leslie greeted us warmly. Granville Kitchen is a community centred organisation that provides food aid, food education as well as fun activities to local residents. There fridges are well used so we had the important task of cleaning them. We split into two teams with Leslie and Harvey working at the front, and Tabitha and Samina the back fridge. After wiping them down and taking out the shelves for a good scrub, the fridges were soon clean and sparkling. We were grateful for the hot water keeping our hands warm on such a cold day! The final job for the evening was cleaning up some split detergent in the bottom of a cupboard...it had turned into a sticky brown gloop, but thankfully with a bit of elbow grease it was easily removed.
We stopped for a team photo, said goodbye to Leslie then headed off carefully into the night. Great job everyone!
We build community around food and heth activities such as food aid food growing and exercise classes.
