Volunteer News and Views The art of reflection: What we’ve been up to over the past three months… By Kaleh Ali, London volunteer Since our last newsletter, we have been so excited to make another one for you guys. Your positive feedback and reviews left us with a big smile. In this new article, I will be talking to you about my 5K May walk, Stress Awareness Month and the challenges the lockdown lift may bring some people. As some of us may be aware, this May, PAPYRUS teamed up with ‘Run for Heroes’. The creators of the 5k lockdown challenge. It was my first time participating, a very rewarding and memorable experience. The best thing about this 5k May challenge is that you do not need to just run it, you can cycle it or walk it too. I chose to walk the 5k in my local area, I took many pictures on my journey of the photo-worthy nature that made my walk a calming and reflective one. The walk not only allowed me to give back by donating £5, but it encouraged me to go on more elsewhere in London. As my 5k walk made me feel so tranquil and peaceful I began to take more walks. I drove to Greenwich where I went on walks by the water, I was able to see many beautiful, astonishing and breathtaking landscapes and sites.
