Having met at the rendezvous point to move on to our secret location, we were met by the smiling faces of the people who’ve been keeping the Bristol Churches Winter Night Shelter project along with a hoover, two carpet washers and lots of painting kit.

Splitting into floors and walls teams, we were soon smartening up the communal areas of the B&B erasing or covering up lots of wear and tear marks.

It was great to have Ryan and Rosie along for their first good deed, to see Will and Roz again on a task (Will doesn’t know his own strength) and to walk back to the city centre with Jason - all round loveliness! Same again next week?
