Ben's day was quite varied today and busier than last Sunday. He started by loading some food bags into trolleys as volunteer drivers, including our fellow GoodGym members Tousif and Naneesh, were waiting to take them for deliveries. He then moved onto the sorting and bagging, which included staples like pasta and beans and some treats like macaroons and haribo. They then took a delivery order, including of bread and milk, and he helped with the unloading of that, before moving back on to bagging and loading bags for some bulk deliveries at the end of the day.

He was there a little longer today, it was closer to five hours than the standard three hour shift, as there was more going on. So well done Ben for going the extra mile today.
