Women carry appliances from Yate to Bristol to help homeless

The team split into small groups, rotating between carrying appliances and a bag of food supplies to give to the Blonde Angel Street Team to distribute.

Dee Woodwaid carried a fridge, she said: “It’s actually been quite nice, it’s comfortable. It’s easier than pushing the toilet. And the weather just adds to the fun.”

Former Royal Marine Lee Ralph runs the boot camp and said the women never “fail to surprise” him.

“It’s been really tough. The weather has made things hard, the women were getting cold. But they got through it,” he said.

A man who has been homeless since February said it made a “huge difference” to get the food from the Blonde Angel Street Team.

“It’s very helpful. It’s a lifeline for everybody,” he said.

“By the end of the day, all the food is gone.”
