The Second Hidden Borough Market

Wednesday 19th November 2025

Written by Louis Benham (He/him)

Met up with an old school friend for lunch who works in the area so it was an obvious logical next step to help out here to stay away from my desk for a bit longer. They were unloading new stock from a Felix Project van when I arrived so helped with some lifting. I then had to quality inspect some carrots and cabbages for a bit and present them neatly to go on the shelves. Final task was to unbox longer life projects which I am demonstrating in the photos (totally not staged!). Had a really nice chat with two regular volunteers and really appreciated the tea. Planning to go back when I next have time in the new year.
