Last night's meet-up was a blast! Just me and Chau, taking over the Bassuah Legacy Foundation charity shop ๐ช๐ฝ๐
We were greeted with a warm hug from Tina, the lovely owner. We got straight to work, dividing and conquering like pros ๐ค!
I took on the upstairs challenge, swapping out old stock for fresh faces ๐๐, while Chau tackled the downstairs store area like a boss ๐. She sorted bags of clothes into neat boxes, separating brands from non-brands like a pro ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ.
The verdict? The shop is looking sorted ๐คฉ!
If you ever find yourself in the area, do pop into Bassuah Legacy Foundation โ it's a win-win: great finds and supporting single-parent families ๐!

Last night we braved the chilly weather for a speedy task at Masbro Centre, where we received a lovely warm welcome from Camille โ very much appreciated given how cold it was out there! ๐ฅถโจ It was also great to have Mariella join us for her first session in the area โ welcome to the neighbourhood! ๐
Our main mission was to sweep the leaves from the car park, and we wasted no time getting stuck in. Armed with brooms and determination ๐งน๐ช, we worked fast to keep warm and managed to fill three whole bags of leaves in just 25 minutes โ not bad at all! ๐๐๐
Cold but productive, this was a brilliant quick-win task and a great start for Mariella in the area. Big thanks to everyone involved, and to Masbro Centre for having us โ until next time! ๐

Arrived at Ms G home after Acton Junior Parkrun and this time alone to sort her front garden. Kash and I were here not long ago and did the back garden. On arrival noticed the bags we filled in the front garden from our last visit. I knocked and rang Ms G, but no answer. As easy access to the garden(no locked doors or walls : started to pull the dry vegetation as easy to get out of the soil and started putting in the bag that was not full. In the meantime Ms G came out as heard my voicemail : apologised as fell asleep. Gave me more bags and I got the rack and spade just in case it was needed. During the mission I had the company of 2 cheeky squirrels and then a cat who literally just watched me work from inside the garden. I filled 6 bags and put them with the others ready for collection. The garden now looks great and Ms G already had some bulbs growing so left them to grow. Cold morning but the body was in motion so kept warm.
