Share the love

It was so lovely today to be able to hand deliver our donations from last week’s Walk, Talk and Donate to East End Food bank where I completed a solo mission.

Kind donations from Charlotte and Carol Anne helped to stock the shelves of toiletries which are now distributed to families once a month.

I had a lovely calm task today of packing bags of toiletries and sanitary products which gave me a chance to have a good catch up with Fiona at the foodbank, as well as show off my new doggy mask and have a singalong to the radio.

We are back in two weeks time.


This task supported
East End Women
A project supporting women with skills and training, education, loneliness and domestic abuse recovery.

East End Women offers practical courses for women to build confidence and skills around DIY, sewing, pattern cutting and basic trades. We also deliver the Freedom Programme domestic abuse recovery course, helping women to better understand the roots of domestic abuse and build confidence to identify warning signs in the future. In addition to this, East End Women also offer social activities and drop-in sessions for women experiencing isolation to meet one another, make friends and build local networks.
