Report written by Laura Denham
Tonight we took a walk to Clothing Coventry, enjoying the mild weather while it lasts. Clothing Coventry now have their new rails so the warehouse is literally stacked to the rafters with apparel. As the rails are full to the brim we got to work sorting out the bags and crates of men clothes and baby wear whilst listening to Christmas jingles.
Lilian started with the mens jumpers hanging them on lovely wooden hangers that once belonged to the Queen, don't you know! Deb, Jackie and Lani were sorting out the mens clothes into different sizing. Meanwhile Laura was hiding behind a wall of crates sorting the mountains of baby clothes into ages. Tomorrow is their last day before closing for Christmas and they are anticipating that the majority of mens clothes will be gone. We worked as fast as we could to get as much done as possible and it was a good work out lifting those heavy bags and crates!
We also had a visit from a friendly face at the end, dropping off some donations. Great to see you Allan!
This was the last task this year so fab work everyone. Wishing you all a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
