And big it was! With over 20 volunteers organising and sorting and packing and moving and stacking and labelling last night, (along with a camera crew conducting some interviews), we managed to get over 120 boxes ready to go. They have been packed, checked, sealed, recorded and stuck with yellow tape by Anna and Lara so we don't record them twice.
The pile of collection items that had been dropped off when we got there was a little overwhelming.
I wasn't sure we would manage to get it all done in a few hours, but we did. What a sense of satisfaction to see the stacks of boxes growing. Nice to see, and amazing to see that we are only alraedy about halfway there to filling this container. Laying out all the boxes as we have has really made apparent the true size of the container, and it's HUGE, so bring in your stuff and continue to spread the word. One week today that container is leaving.
This was the end of the night, just the five of us left and the boxes neatly stacked.Amazing!
