@shrinepod Surely Ted just got the ultimate line of juicy #weedonkey

My insurance claim got rejected and I’m feeling really overwhelmed, so I’m going to sign off for a while. I’m really pleased with how well 5k every day went and appreciate everyone’s support so much. If anyone sees my bike can you reach out to @MrCallumDouglas please? Stay safe.

@monicac1969 @edinspotlight @EmptyKitchens @LeithCycleCo That’s awful 😞 I’m so sorry.

@edinspotlight @Every5k @EmptyKitchens @LeithCycleCo It’s happened the same to my son brand new first bike,and been stole from outside his school of St Mary’s primary

Have just come back to my flat in Leith to find my bike, which I saved up for for years and use to deliver meals for @EmptyKitchens has been stolen. I'm absolutely devastated. If you see it please let me know. @LeithCycleCo if anyone comes in you fitted these amazing mudguards

@GavinKBarrie @JustGiving Thank you SO much for all your support throughout the month, I’ve really appreciated it ☺️

I've #justdonated to turn surplus food into healthy meals for those who need them. Donate on @justgiving and help raise £1700 justgiving.com/crowdfunding/5…

@funnyweepics @EmptyKitchens My pyjamas are staying on allllll day!! Thank you for your support throughout the month, it’s been really lovely ☺️

@Every5k @EmptyKitchens What a brilliant effort, and for a brilliant cause, well done you! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Feet up tomorrow?

I can’t believe it’s finished. 30 days of running 5k every day. Turns out it’s a long way! Thank you so much for your support everyone, the money raised for @EmptyKitchens stands at £1,660. It’s incredible, and I’m grateful from my head to the tips of my toes.

FINISH LINE: @LeithTheatre, our fantastic and supportive current hosts. From here we’ve sent out over 250,000 meals! Thanks to all our other supporters and @Every5k for her incredible efforts.

Done!!!

Ok. 4,3,2,1 - Last Day! Today is all about @EmptyKitchens and the incredible work they do for the Edinburgh community. 145k down and one final 5k to go this evening. Thank you @EmptyKitchens for everything you do, and thank you to everyone who has been so supportive. 1/2

@shonaverity1 @EmptyKitchens @edinburghpaper Thank you Shona, that’s very kind. If possible I’d rather you use your platform to spread the news about the work @EmptyKitchens are doing. I’ve had such wonderful offers here and hopefully the bike will be found or insurance will come through.

I really hope my bike is found, but if not I have some wonderful people waiting in the wings to help however they can, and I want to say thank you. You’ve been incredible sharing this far and wide and offering to help, and I couldn’t be more grateful. 2/2

Yesterday was a whirlwind of feeling really upset, to being overwhelmed by the kindness of strangers. I’m not an active Twitter user, and I’m amazed and so grateful for how quickly a community can come together for someone who is struggling. #edinburgh 1/2

@Bikes4Refugees @EmptyKitchens @LeithCycleCo Wow, that’s so good of you to offer. And thank you for all you are doing, it’s really brilliant. I’ll get in contact with your shortly once I see how long insurance takes etc. Thank you so much.

@Every5k @EmptyKitchens @LeithCycleCo We would be more then happy to lend you a bike until your insurance gets sorted- local in Leith- 🚴‍♂️💞

@Badgeraz Weirdly the railings are all still in tact. Nothing left but a bike seat that wasn’t mine. But yes, I think I’ll carry the next one up the stairs.

@Every5k Gutting when you lose a 'friend' like that - best not to leave in stairwell for next time. It's super easy for thieves to a) get into stairwell and b) get through the railing. A quick hit with a hammer usually breaks the railings.

@BikeTraxEdin @EmptyKitchens I’m really sorry you got robbed. I hope you are managing okay. That’s a really generous offer, and I’ll be in touch if I need your help. Just going to wait and see how insurance claiming goes. Thank you for being great.

@Every5k @EmptyKitchens We know your pain. We got robbed a couple of weeks ago ourselves. We are huge admirers of your work so if it helps at all you can borrow one of our hire bikes until you get sorted. #cycliststogether

@YorkIndieDlvry @HalOsler @EmptyKitchens @LeithCycleCo Thank you, I do have that so thanks for the tip.

@talloplanic Yes, thank you!

@HalOsler @EmptyKitchens @LeithCycleCo That’s really kind thank you. I’m not sure how long insurance takes but I will certainly remember this post if I’m stuck

@LeghornFh @EmptyKitchens I will let you know how I get on with insurance, I have high hopes they will be able to sort me out with a new bike. I have everything crossed! Thank you for your kindness.

One of our full hearted volunteers has been robbed! @Every5k used this bike to deliver free food provisions to those in need and it’s been stolen. If anyone sees it please get in touch. You can email us on friends@emptykitchens.co.uk
