• Night Shelter: 21 carriers of tea, coffee and biscuits.
• Harbour Project: 33 carriers of toiletries and personal items
• Women’s Refuge: 3 carloads of children’s items and personal items
• Blankets: 123 donated to geriatric hospitals where each patient has been given their own blanket – which then goes with them either to their home or care home. 20 more are now ready to be delivered.
