Bright Morning Star Prisons and Homelessness Outreach(BMS) support vulnerable people at their walk-in centres by offering advice, food and a free counselling service.

We're working with them to take leftovers from Greggs and Pret stores to BMS who give it out at their clinics.

Less food waste + food for homeless people = 👍👍

Start location: Pret A Manger, St John’s Road, Clapham, SW11 1PX @ 6:30pm

⬇️DISTANCE: 4km - Here's a map.

End location: 2 Byrne House, Kett Gardens, SW91 1SR. This is Lola's flat - she takes the food to be distributed!

Please arrive by 6:30pm - Pret will be closed after that. If you go in and say you're collecting food for Bright Morning Star Prison and Homelessness 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.

🤿 a mask to wear in the shop.

We ideally need 3 people to sign up to transport the food - you can either walk, run or ride, together or separately. If there are any problems, please call Lola from Bright Morning Star on 07492 079197.

How are you getting there?
