Report written by Peter Van Tongeren
Today was Helen's first visit to the sometimes hectic base of Woodberry Aid, where Queen Euphemia did manage to tear herself away from the business of running the place to have a chat and introduce the goings on of the Woodberry Aid Foodbank & Community Shop.
Three of the regular deliveries were ready and waiting, so we high-jacked a trolley and set out on foot to drop off the deliveries and at the same time introduce Helen to the local area of Woodberry Down.
First & second delivery were straightforward and close-by with the third one a little further away but still in easy reach. Unfortunately Mr F's doorbell had broken down even further - from previously being unable to open the door, he was now not even receiving the call to start with! Luckily we had his phone number to call him and let him know we were downstairs with his delivery. Lets say we were all in agreement in how disappointing the councils repair service was once again...
Strolling back to base chatting away, job done we said our goodbyes to the team and went on our way again.
food bank run by volunteers, based in Woodberry Down Estate
