We knew it would be a busy evening, as they were operating a takeaway service only at FoodCycle. So the four of us were only too keen to get involved again. Gill and Martin were in the kitchen team and worked together with the other volunteers to create a hearty meal for our guests to take away. While Gill prepped an autumnal stew, Martin got creative, making a delicious stiry fry to go in a wrap for the starter. 50 wraps, umpteen shredded omeletes and a plethora of fresh vegetables - peppers and pakchoi - made this dish the star of the show. What a shame that there were so many guests there were no left overs for the volunteers as it looked and smelt amazing.

Shady and Omar were a great help on the hosting team and soon adapted to the different way of supporting the guests when it is takeaway night. Tehy filled bags with food surplus, helped manage the food queue and supported with the clearing up afterwards, including filling Gill's boot with the empty crates for her to return to Sainsbury's later that night.

We all worked hard to ensure all parts of the meal were ready by 6pm and by 7 the who was over - and that's a wrap.
