UPDATE ON COMMUNAL MEAL

Marjory and Ashika organized the second communal meal on 3 March. The meal went

well with eight people attending including a resident from St Mungo’s hostel. Two people

attended who were new to our events. The meal was simpler than before- soup and

crumble from local, in season, fruit and vegetables. There was a suggestion at the end that

we should do an Eritrean meal but no offers were made to organize etc. The participants

were charged £5.00 for the ingredients. We had £12.00 over. It was agreed by participants

that this would be donated to the Transition Willesden fund. Marjory has been informed by St Mungo’s that a new provider, Look Ahead, will take over the running of the building

in April. It is not clear how this will affect room bookings etc. Marjory will follow up with

Simon from St Mungo’s.

sorry no one from Field to Fork Organics made it as hoped. I spoke to Amandine yesterday briefly about press stuff and she'd like to have a chat...
