Since the Easter weekend is actually starting tomorrow I thought I would re-egg-splore some egg puns for today’s report! As you can see from the photos, the generosity of the people of Newcastle is egg-straordinary so the East End Women’s foodbank has been able to distribute around 1000 chocolate eggs to their r-egg-ular clients and lots of others too. Sara and I joined the regular volunteers today and after Sara helped with veg bag packing she then joined me in stacking the shelves - take a look at the before and after photos! It was great egg-cercise and very satisfying to see the shelves filled. For egg-sample there’s now plenty of sweet corn, lentils, tomatoes, beans and rice pudding! It’s no eggs-aggeration to say we were eggs-hausted by the end of the session! I hope you all manage at least some relaxation over the holiday weekend!
