To understand the challenges, she rolls up her sleeves and works alongside the mostly retired volunteer staff. Shocked by the poor quality of donations, Mary leads a bold stunt at a London shopping center to highlight the issue. Back in Orpington, she launches a campaign to improve donation quality, but her efforts face resistance, leaving Mary questioning if she’s taken on too much.
