Lionel + Russell as above looking at fixings when there is time.

Review of areas:

Kitchen:

• Filled some items (washing stuff, put some under sink - probably need some signage!)
• Tomato Ketchup - run out completely

Cleaning Supplies/Bathroom:

• Towels - The black ones. Old ones are grotty, approval for getting some from John Lewis.
• Paper towels - only 5 left, need more
• Blue roll - 7 rolls left, check if cheaper
• Toilet rolls - last pack, need more

(NB: have mop heads, vacuum bits, soap).

Workshop:

• Disposable aprons - gone missing??? Can't find
• Need to do an inventory of lots of bits - currently fixings ongoing

Things considered but no/other:

• Pinking shears - lost now (?) - is a tool. Sent email to tools team.
• Needles for sewing machines - Ange has brought some. Approved this purchase but don't need to now obviously, aim is to wait until more machines are brought to duplicate needles if possible - make a list when that occurs. Andrew can sort this.
• Stripboard - we have a lot (although most has wire on it) and need to review electronics area anyway; will wait for a proper review and use what is left for now.

Discussion about tools:

• Still not 100% on what side it is Tools Team or Resources Team. Some parts are more obvious then others (needles and discs versus motors).

Safety team: Emailed to check on stocks of first aid stuff/safety things.

Actions

• Purchase list as above.
• Fixings review (Screws, bolts and nuts, nails) - Russell and Lionel

Note to Andrew: note need to sort sewing machine inductions.
