We met at our usual place in the Showroom cinema and welcomed new runner Ollie - welcome Ollie!
We headed up the street to join Common Thread where Fran told us what are missions were for the evening: we quickly split into teams, half of us sorting through donations while the other half got on search for specific items to make clothes parcels for babies, boys , men and women.
We went through plenty of clothes and some of us unearthed real gems of accessories - Amelia found the best mittens- in the shape of strawberries - perfect for keeping cheerful this winter!
We ticked off all our missions and bid farewell to Fran and the other Common Thread volunteers. We will visit again on 14/12. Sign up!
