Our Nargis could not do the full session at the Frenford Food Bank today so sent along a ringer in the form of her cousin Amira. Quick to learn and keen to get on with it Amira proved to be a real asset to the Food Bank team and is interested in looking into GG membership.

AJ put her organisational skills to good use in nappy and toiletries corner again while James continued last nights shelf filling. Yasmin made a welcome return to the team and got on with quiet efficient packing, so too did Sharon who, after a short refresher and introduction to a few changes, was soon making a valuable contribution.

Pretty soon we were all assigned to packing alongside the regular Frenford volunteers. We seemed to be all done in double quick time and in very good humour, from gently teasing James who was keen to organise our untidy rabble to his and Sharon's performance debut with a rendition of Wonder Wall. 🎶

Nargis arrived to relieve Amira and was still there helping to clear up after the last of us left.

I do apologise for not being on the ball and missing half the team out of the photos 🙈 please be assured you all did a great job and it was much appreciated.

Ed assisted Linda with a couple of deliveries after the session which is why he's been added to this mission because Linda was too lazy to set up a separate one. 😜
