Tonight, Jade and Peter were on hand to support with the clean-up post distribution and pre Easter. With the eggs-tra pair of hands there was time to attack the often-neglected nooks and crannies behind the storage boxes. Armed with a vacuum and determination, a proper behind-the-scenes refresh was completed after a hands-on sort-through of cartons, egg boxes, and miscellaneous bits and bobs.

Spent an hour this evening lending a hand at Merton’s Community Food Bank — armed with gloves, a vacuum, and enough sanitiser to keep the germs on their toes. I took on the floor vacuuming duties and helped give the place a good scrub-down, from bins to boxes, making everything sparkle.

Spent the day helping out Merton's Community Fridge team - armed with gloves, a vacuum, and enough sanitiser to make any germ think twice. From vacuuming floors to tackling the bins and giving boxes a squeaky-clean glow-up, every little bit helps. Big respect to the team doing this day in and day out - heroes in high-vis!

Despite a small crew and a mountain of boxes, we tackled Merton's Community Fridge, cleaning fridges and boxes and finishing with a thorough vacuuming.

With an intro to the new coordinator and a few extra volunteers we gave Merton's Community Fridge a thorough vacuuming and replenished the cleaning supplies, ensuring it's ready for tomorrows distribution.

Plenty to do today and as a treat we were offered the contents of some Felix food boxes; a delightful assortment of surplus goodies. Amongst the usual suspects, we discovered some intriguing items, including… a surprise (to some), taro root! This sparked conversations about recipes and cooking adventures. Who knew a fridge clean-up could lead to such culinary inspiration?
