Friday 18th October
Report written by StephDucat
Foggy Friday morning and both Jp and Steph Ducat adventured in the streets of Ealing to volunteer at ESK. Steph was super early so helped Stephen with unloading the deliveries, preparing grocery bags with massive spuds and setting out some of the activities that would take place after 11am. JP arrived by bike to join the team in the foyer. JP was supposed to be on barber duties : giving tickets out but ended up with Steph on Bingo. The Bingo had 7 eager people to win some lovely prizes. The Bingo set is getting a bit tired as the container is no longer so the balls are in a tin that you shake before pulling out a number. Then Steph had some invisible numbers as half erased so we had to do some DIY on the bingo balls with some black marker for the next games of the day. Invisble numbers but magical numbers for the winners who shared lovely tins of shortbread biscuits, truffles, a box of plastic containers, jarred soup and some toffee chocolates.
Ealing Soup Kitchen is a registered charity set up to help the vulnerable and homeless in the area. Nine local churches support our faith-based Soup Kitchen, which has been running since 1973.
