Tables, Glorious Tables! 🎉
Saturday 25th June 2022

Early on Saturday morning, I ran down to Tooting to help some other volunteers start setting up for the annual Tooting Community Fun Day! This was the first year the Fun Day could go ahead again since Covid.
The main bulk of the task involved taking all the tables out of storage and assemble them along the street. I also helped set up the chairs and hang up the bunting - more challenging than expected in the wind 😅
The Fun Day is a great project which brings the Tooting community together - I hope the weather holds up for them!
