A very kind person on one of the bulletin boards asked if there was anything that they could bring from the UK to help the SOS project families. The committee have now spoken to Nuket who runs the project and they are in need of the items listed. If anyone has any spare luggage space and would like to help please contact me.



Boys shoes (school type) or BLACK trainers sizes 29,32,35,38

Disposable Nappies second size up

Trainer pants

White vests all children's sizes or t shirts

Baby gro's (all sizes up to age 5)

pencils crayons, writing/drawing books

As you will appreciate, a pack of vests for instance is very cheap in the UK if bought from Asda/Tesco for example.



For the person who offered, thank you and we hope we have given you an idea of their immediate needs.



Once again on behalf of the SOS Project Committee, we would like to thank you all for your support.



Sassy

Sassy, Will get my mum to bring something over in april. Hope others can help. Is there ever any spare space in Valentines containers can they not arrange a collection then fill it up?

Hi Scoobydoo



We are looking into this at the moment. We have to be careful not to

incur costs. As we are collecting on behalf of a registered charity

we do not have to pay tax charges.



Will post when we have any further information.

Thank you for your support

Regards

Sassy

Hi sassy,

Many thanks for the info.

Would you be able to provide a monthly update please?

We won't be out for a little while.

Will these items still be needed in a couple of months??

Best wishes to the SOS Project committee.

Sassy - likewise message 4. Not coming over until early June but would be glad to help. It would be good to receive updates, so that people will be aware of your current needs.



Best wishes.

Hi Sassy

I'll be happy to help if we can - most containers have some spare space that could be used for a good cause, and I've always been good at rattling tins! I wish you lots of luck with your Charity. Any idea of the volume that might be involved?

If anyone wants to send anything please contact me.

Regards

Jo Valentine

Hi Sassy,



would you be interested in my nephews clothes that he is rapidly growing out of? He is just 14 months and my mum has offered to bring some over in April.
