Caroline, Karen and Sheila helped out at the Baby Bank this morning, quickly settling into the routine of checking and sorting clothes donations. Luckily the facility had invested in 2 large fans to keep the volunteers cool, and boy, did we need them! Most bizarre find in the donation bags was a turkey baster. Not something we've ever been asked for!

Carol and Karen helped out at the Baby Bank this week. There was a large corporate team in so Carol and Karen were promoted to blue volunteer, lanyards as opposed to the usual red visitor lanyards and were able to guide the corporate team while they did the first checks on the donated clothing. Carol and Karen did the second checks and put everything neatly into the correct boxes.

Sue and Karen spend a pleasant morning helping at the Baby Bank. Sue sorted lots of nappies downstairs while Karen did second checks upstairs. A few regular volunteers from other days attended to bolster the numbers so it was good to meet and chat with new people.

Caroline and Karen spent an enjoyable morning at the Baby Bank. It was a hot morning but they provided fans to cool us down. Caroline was on first checks with a corporate team while Karen did the second checks. It was satisfying to fill up some of the boxes which had run very low with new donations.
