Refugee Crisis
You will all be aware of the plight of refugees mainly from Syria and the efforts many of you have already made to send aid to charitable or aid organisations to support families who now find themselves homeless and in great need of help. Councillor Waters is
co-ordinating aid to those who are held in refugee camps in Calais and is organising a convoy which leaves on Thursday 29 October.
Items requested are:
- small torches;
- double AA batteries for torches
- tea lights
- jars and packets of ready to eat baby food
- warm clothing for men and boys
- waterproof clothing for men and boys
- sturdy footwear for men, women and children (all sizes and all ages)
- camping equipment in working order
- basic toiletries (soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste etc)
- transportable food (anything non-perishable, e.g. tinned food, rice etc).
If you would like to help, please send in any items to school by Thursday 22 Oct as items will be collected on Friday 23 Oct.
Thank you.
