This was an extra (January challenge booster) group session. The aim was to deep clean the kitchen at the Martin Way Methodist Church, home to the Open Table and soon to become a night shelter. Gloves at the ready, six of us faithfuls set about cleaning behind the fridge, wiping down surfaces, sorting drawers and cupboards, hoovering, mopping and anything else that could be completed within the hour. The sparkling results spoke for themselves! As the clock struck the hour we departed into the night, excited to catch the next episode of The Traitors...

We returned to Merton's Community Fridge to finish what we started: this time sorting through supplies and getting every box clearly labelled; benefitting from fresh batteries in the label maker! A couple of the team also helped with the clean up. It’s amazing what a difference a few labels and some elbow grease can make.
