We arrived ahead of the evening shift team to help Tony with various set up tasks. After transforming the church hall into a temporary sleeping area with fresh bedding we helped with laying the dining area, creating a welcoming safe space for the shelter guests. Back in the morning to help pack things away and load the belongings for transportation to the next location.
