An appeal from Sue Roycroft
In recent years Chelford and other neighbouring villages have supported the Women's refuges in Manchester with their shoe box appeal.
During the Covid-19 crisis, Refuges reported a 750% increase in refuge demand.
The shoes boxes that we've provided previously have included ladies toiletries and might include an extra small gift, maybe socks, gloves, chocolate, cosmetics etc.
If possible could the shoe boxes be wrapped in Christmas paper, with the lid wrapped separately.
Should anyone like to make a donation of any spare toiletries, chocolate, gloves etc we could make up extra boxesI need to pass these onto our contact at the refuge by mid-December.
Please could these be ready by Wednesday 9th December, either delivered to me or I will collect them from your doorstep in a covid secure way.
The picture above is of some of the gifts we managed to donate in a previous year.
Best wishes,
Sue 01625 861509
