There was plenty for us to do helping with renovations at the much-loved Blackfen Community Library — a vibrant community space powered by its trademark 'Big Hello' and popular Rooted Coffee House☕📚.

We got stuck into:

🧽 cleaning chairs and shining up windows

🎨 painting the loo walls with classic white-on-white

💪shifting crates and furniture into a side room to clear the carpets for deep cleaning, and

🪛 IKEA-style assembly of a flat-pack filing cabinet.

💬 Quote of the day:

“We need four No. 8 screws.” “I can’t find any No. 8s…” “Oh wait—it’s eight No. 4 screws!”

An afternoon of teamwork, elbow grease, and good fun all the way. And a shout out to Simon on hitting ten good deeds 👏.
