A Brush with the Elements

On Monday evening Meg, Tabitha and Pete met in Willesden , and ran to Brent Mencap, where we were joined by Anne Mari and Tania. Brent Mencap is dedicated to supporting Brent residents with learning disabilities, and they have a beautiful garden for its service users, but the tool shed was in desperate need of a fresh coat of paint.

Our task for the day was painting this shed white. We started off with a quick sweep of the shed with the brooms, then poured out the white paint and got to work with our paintbrushes and rollers. We worked well as a team, and it was a very satisfying task to watch the shed transform before our eyes. We had almost finished and the rain decided to join us!

This made us more determined to complete the job and in no time at all, the shed was sparkling white and we packed up ready to go!

Great work everyone
