This year the Midlands depots went head-to-head in a Christmas decorating contest - and Narborough came out on top!
Check out the incredible creativity and resourcefulness that the team at FareShare Midlands Narborough used to turn a corner of the warehouse into a Christmas grotto! Some of the things they did included:- Constructing a tree out of the trays used to store food
- Twisting plastic bags into tinsel, ornaments and wreaths
- Gathering secret santa presents around the bottom of the tree
- Setting up a seating area around the "fire"
- Making Santa's legs out of plastic and dangling them down the chimney
- Making snowmen out of bin bags
- And making a festive tree display out of bread packets
(Once finished with, the bags will be recycled, and trays returned to the co-op!)
