Today we went back to Refugee Action Kingston to finish what we started On Tuesday evening painting the office and reception area.

When we arrived the painting had been in full flow since Tuesday and the walls were starting to loose their yellow tinge.

Rachel, Marie-Noelle and Claire all gave some of the walls a second coat of paint and Rachel then moved on to cleaning the nasty sticky sellotape marks off the windows. Meanwhile Marie-Noelle and Claire cleaned the door frame and radiator so they were all shiny and sparkling.

It was then time for a quick hoover and tidy up so the office could be put back together for Monday morning. It now looks much brighter space to welcome visitors and work in.

We were then treated to sushi as an early lunch which was enjoyed by all.

I hope the team enjoy their new look offices on Monday morning.
