Redbridge Report written by James C (he/him)
40 odd client packages needed to be made, and everyone got stuck on as soon as they arrived. Linda arrived a lot earlier, mostly as she is partly running the foodbank and very keen. With some help from other helpers we got done in just under 2 hours. Just goes to show that many hands make light work

Linda was already at the food bank when James and I arrived shortly before 9am ready for a full session. The shelves had been stocked previously by Linda and other volunteers in the days leading up to the Good Friday session. There were three other good gymers including Sharon and Herman with Tina which made the 70 or so orders easier to pick as well as some young folk on the Duke of Edinburgh award all working together. There was a good number of Easter eggs donated that were added to every order that had children in the family. Very soon the shelves were severely depleted after filling all the orders and it was time to restock with supplies that we had in the back store. We were finished in record time having done two days work ( normally ) in a much shorter time than we expected and all thanks to Linda and her excellent organisation skills, well done Linda !!

James and Linda arrived at Frenford Food Bank first so did some prep and put away the last of the previous supermarket delivery.
AJ, Tina and Herbert soon arrived and got stuck in to the packing straight away. As the lists and cages have been sorted numerically it became apparent that AJ was working out of sequence, turns out she has always cherry picked the single person parcels as they are the lightest...busted 😂 well to be fair as she said herself she is only little.
We were soon done so moved on to loading up the drivers and sorting out another supermarket delivery.
Finally getting a quiet moment we had a chat with Task Owner Irfan about our complaints - I mean opportunities for improvements- in the ordering processes and packing forms. He seemed to take our suggestions on board well although he did then tell us it was time to go home 😂 At this point Hamad turned up, well we do say timings are loose and anytime you can give is appreciated 😁 a donation of groceries had just come in and we thought putting that away was a good opportunity for someone new to the foodbank to find their way round the shelves so we left him to it. Sorry Hamad, we were pretty shattered by then, we will show you the ropes properly next time.

Herman Yip cheered by other people 25 times.
Herman is part of a crowd that's making a huge noise. Herman has been cheered by 25 people - that's a round of applause just on their own. We hope they keep it up.

Four of us arrived to find a massive delivery and over 40 parcels to pick and pack. Along with the Frenford Staff volunteers we got the packing done in good time and the deliveries started going out with the drivers. We then got on with restocking shelves and sorting the new delivery for stashing in the store room. Despite the fact that a couple of us needed to sneak off earlier than usual everything got done in good time with a tidy stack of empty crates in the end. Well done us. 😁
