Emma and I met GROAD volunteers Vale and Andrea to distribute donations this morning.

With 400 people living at the venue, there was lots to get out on display before 12pm. Emma was complimented on her folding skills, and Sam's ears must have been burning as Andrea sang his praises when he wasn't even there!

We spent the next hour tidying, pushing our favourite donations on the guests, and hanging up clothes ready for Andrea's next session this evening.

The majority of items were snapped up by 1pm, so with a bit of tidying we were all done in good time and headed off to enjoy the afternoon.
