Jen, Nic and Sheila went to help taskowner Fran do our regular deep clean of the Community Fridge. This amazing charity aims to reduce food wate by collecting near end-date produce from supermarkets and selling it at low prices at their facility in Windsor. As usual the fridges all needed a good clean, so Nic took on washing up the shelves and baskets whilst Jen and Sheila cleaned the insides of the fridges. The fridges started singing to indicate they had been open too long, each with their own little tune! Meanwhile Fran cleaned the shelving and rearranged the stock to make an attractive display. Once everything had been washed, dried and wiped clean, Jen gave the floor a good mop with our favourite mop and bucket set ( worth coming just to see this in action!), and we edged out of the door for our traditional selfie. Lovely and clean for opening next week.
