Today we were moving mattresses and duvets into Victoria Park Church for the homeless. On a day where it's really cold, icy, snowy it especially makes you think and worry about the homeless people on the street. So it's great to know there are these wonderful people from Bristol Churches Winter Night Shelter providing them with somewhere warm to sleep and a meal and definitely something we want to help with.

Today we didn't go for a speedy time, we instead just tried to ensure we didn't slide over on the ice! We all stayed upright, moved all the mattresses - success, nice one!
