I came back for the wrapping up part after the morning setup in the Teviot community center. I was surprised to be welcomed by Laura, the Area Activator of Tower Hamlets.

I'm sure they were talking about you Madhan - Laura

Stacking the chairs, moving them inside. Wiping the tables, folding them, and moving them inside was what I did most of the evening. As it rained a bit in the evening, some of the marquee tents had water lagged on the top. Unfortunately, the water fell on one of the volunteers when we were folding the tents.

We needed someone with muscle, like you - Kelly to Madhan

When I was leaving I thought of taking a group picture with the organiser volunteers. Then it grew and all the volunteers of different sections joined. That was the best moment of the evening.

While leaving I had some leftover wraps and pastries and finished my dinner there.
