At 8am on Saturday morning a small group of volunteers arrived in a large Warehouse in Trafford park set about packing bags of provisions for one of the community hubs in Oldham. 310 sets of fruit and veg, ambient foods and chilled supplies were packed onto pallets and loaded into vans. Then there was sweeping tidying, replenishing the stock at packing stations and putting empty pallets back into place. By 11:30am we were done, and I'd burnt 1800 calories and I was ready for my own lunch at home!
