Shoe Box Packing – can you help Debbie get ready to help pack the Shoe Boxes for Christmas? She’s planning to do this on Saturday 19th October at her house and would welcome people who’d like to help.  In the meantime can others please help provide the contents and really make those who receive the presents a really special offering.

So what do we need? If we have any knitters out there, scarfs, gloves and hats are always well received for any age. It seems they get lots for small children but very little for teenagers up to the age of 18. Things like makeup, toiletries, perfumes, sportswear, writing materials, combs, mirror, deodorants, etc are always popular. Household goods are always well received as well, but anything is acceptable. Just imagine never having received a present before, what would you like? If you are able to help in any way it will be very much appreciated.

Our campaign Getting Tied Up with Rotary – offering a new home to your unloved, unused neckties is really taking off, do help to continue to promote this endeavour to help raise much needed funds for the End Polio Now campaign. More information at Recycled Neckties. It was great this week to receive a large package from Edinburgh of DGN Alistair’s much loved ties, least everyone knows what to buy him for Christmas this year! Thanks also to the Rotary Club of Ealing who are collecting ties at Lisa’s Restaurant and are recruiting a sewing team. How many more Rotary Clubs can we involve in this different way of raising funds for End Polio Now?
