Sunday 21st June
Report written by Jen Stoneham
Dave and I joined up with volunteers from Fratton Community Pantry and Action Asylum to pack down after the cultural event at St Mary's Church.
We arrived in time to see the last couple of performances - local dance groups demonstrating dance and music styles from their cultures.
We then got to work packing down gazebos, then removing, folding and storing their tops. I employed some yoga moves to help squeeze the air out. Very reminiscent from my days camping with the guides!
Lastly, we helped bring some resources back down Fratton Road to the pantry for storage. I very much enjoyed being able to carry a giant phoenix - although we did get some very strange looks from passers by!
We wrapped up the day with a five-mile run - despite it being 6pm when we started, it was still crazily toasty!
