We were back at the East End Women’s foodbank for our regular Thursday community mission.
Charlotte and Kate were unpacking and sorting food which had been delivered into the appropriate crates when I arrived and were still going when I had to leave to get back to work. Welcome done Charlotte on reaching 10 good deeds today!
I got stuck into unpacking and organising the baby stuff sorting the baby food by age range and checking the use by dates so any coming up when out first. I then moved the baby wipes and organised the nappies by age to make it easier to find the correct sizes. Lastly, I also managed to sort the sanitary products into categories and label everything up so they could see what had been had been sorted.
We never stopped and the time flew by! Same time next week?
