Richmond – Cambrian Community Centre

Autumn Gym Fundraiser

Join staff, trustees and volunteers of the Cambrian Community Centre as they aim to raise money for new gym equipment. This year we have a two pronged approach. We are raising funds to replace one of the gyms exercise bikes and also to purchase a chair to accompany the MOTOMed Muvi that allows people of all abilities to exercise.

On Saturday October 11th between 8am and 3pm we are aiming to WALK, RUN, ROW or CYCLE the length of the River Thames. From source to sea the Thames is 238 miles in length and we are aiming to combine all distances covered (however great or small) to raise money through sponsorship.

If you are interested in joining us, you can sign up to do as much or as little on October 11th, alternatively you can sponsor one of the staff team to cover as much distance as possible on the day. Further information on how to sign up, sponsor or donate to the cause is available from the gym staff.

We are also holding a RAFFLE to be drawn at the end of the fundraiser, and we have been donated a variety of prizes, details of which can be found HERE. Tickets are £2 each, and area available for the gym team or Centre Manager David.

If you are interested in supporting the day, please talk call 020 8948 3351 or e-mail gym@cambriancentre.org

Volunteers Needed

Call out for volunteers to join The Real Junk Food Project

Would you like to be part of a team that helps to reduce food waste and provides healthy low cost food to your local community?

The Real Junk Food Project is looking for confident cooks as well as servers to join their team at the Cambrian Community Centre on Wednesday mornings. You will be joining a dynamic team that creates healthy lunches for 50-70 guests per session, creating dishes from the food donations that arrive that morning. This is food that is rescued from the supermarkets and other local businesses that would otherwise have gone to waste. Our community cafes operate on a Pay As You Feel basis and are open to all members of our community.

Our team of chefs aim to create a soup, two main courses (at least one vegetarian) and a dessert each session. You will get the chance to be creative, and will learn techniques of how to cook dishes in large quantities if you don’t already have experience in catering. Our servers may be serving meals, pouring teas and coffees, or helping with the washing up.

The core hours are 9-11:30 for cooking and 11:30-13:30 for serving and the team are usually all packed up by 2pm.

If you are interested please contact Sarah at trjfp.twickenham@gmail.com or pop into the café one Wednesday for a chat.

New equipment for the gym

The Cambrian Community Centre would like to send a heart felt THANK YOU to the Victoria Foundation for the grant they gave the centre recently. The grant has enabled the centre to purchase a MOTOmed muvi to support gym users who have physical disabilities, neurological conditions and or are recovering from surgery or a fall.

The MOTOmed Muvi provides motor assistance to enable gym users the option to include all limbs in their exercise program with or without motor assistance. Our dedicated gym team are excited to include the MOTOmed muvi in more programs for more gym users in the coming weeks and months and we hope that it will make a great addition to the gym equipment list.

Please contact our gym team for more information on joining, restarting or leaning more about how exercise can benefit your everyday life.
