Daryl, Emma, Gemma, Isaac, Lydia, Paulin and Sam met up with Andrea shortly after 19:00 outside Zimbabwe House and Charing Cross Police Station.

They weren't there to be diplomatic or to be arrested...they came out to do good by helping unload the Get Rid Of And Donate (GROAD) van with items that the team helped pack up yesterday at St. Faith's Community centre. From jumpers to jackets and suitcases to shoes, everything that Andrea had been collecting for her rough sleepers project since the last time she did this (in May), they helped display it on the rails of the Charing Cross Police Station. It was a bit hectic with the rough sleepers grasping at anything that they wanted to seize their hands on. Yet, despite the odd rude person, most were respectful and grateful for receiving what the public had donated for them. It was a full circle moment for many of the GG Southwark members from recieving and sorting out donations on a Sunday to giving them out to those who need it the most on the last Tuesday of the month. ❤️

Within 45 minutes, everything was gone and what was left was left out as eventually someone would come along and take it for themselves. Nothing is wasted.

The team made quick work of packing the van and sorting the remaining clothes into boxes for GROAD
