Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Michael Welsh
Unfortunately, this session didn't take place today. I arrived at the centre around 11:50 a.m., but the door was locked. I telephoned the contact number, which was invalid.
After waiting a few minutes outside the entrance, the door opened, I spoke to someone and informed them that I was here for the GoodGym session. They told me there was no food bank today and it had been cancelled. Therefore as far as I know this session did not take place.
Vauxhall Foodbank provide short term food support to families and individuals in crisis. We help them out by sorting food collected from local supermarkets into categories and making sure it is correctly weighed. This task is the dream for all lovers of neatness and order. Feel the calm wash over you as all the tins get sorted and put away. The work we do here would take the voluntary staff hours to do by themselves. We get everything bang tidy in 20 mintes.

Thanks Michael, I emailed but haven't had a response about these sessions which is a shame. I will update when I hear more.
