Report written by Laura Denham
7 awesome Goodgymers made their way to Kairos to pick up where we left off 2 weeks ago.
Allan, Liz, Laura and Lil were turning soil, removing rubble and rocks from the earth while Maddie and Laura D were shovelling sand. We filled lots of bags with the unwanted material which Greame wheelbarrowed outside to pile onto the back of a truck. We were joined by other volunteers so we all worked together to try and get as much done as we could.
Before we knew it, time was up! It was some back breaking work so thanks all for your amazing effort, everyone worked their socks off giving 100% right to the end. Hope you all managed to get out of bed ok this morning!
The garden is slowly moving in the right direction and we always look forward to going back to help support the incredible work that Kairos do.
Kairos Women Working Together supports women who are at risk of or have experienced sexual exploitation or are involved in on street prostitution in Coventry. Kairos WWT provides both holistic one to one support, as well as group support to women. We run a weekly evening outreach and drop-in for women involved in on-street prostitution. We also have a specialist housing practitioner, supporting women who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. As well as criminal justice workers, supporting women to navigate the criminal justice system. Kairos WWT's women's centre offers a safe place for women to get support, get access to basic provisions, as well as be listened to, and access emotional support. We need help to strip and redo our garden area, currently not in use, to create a peaceful and therapeutic space for the women to relax in, as well as learn to garden, care for plants, and hopefully one day, cook food with what they have grown.
