Birmingham And Solihull Women'S Aid

We'd like to say a massive thank you to Alison and Kerry Ann for raising an incredible £625 for us, which will go a long way in supporting women and children!
£500 of this was raised through Dean Prentice's skydive, and the remaining from Kerry Ann's wonderful friends.
This amazing fundraising effort is all in memory of Tracy O'Connoll.

Can you help? We are still in urgent need of supplies for women and children in temporary accommodation. Most often, temporary accommodation offers no cooking facilities, meaning the donations we can provide are limited in terms of choice.
... We are currently in need of:
Food:
• Tin openers • Tins of healthy foods that don’t need heating up like tuna, sweetcorn, beans (not baked!) • Any non-perishable snack items • Porridge sachets that only need boiling water added (preferably in cups as there are no bowls) • Pot noodles – snacks that only require boiling water • Plastic cups, bowls, cutlery
Other:
• Toys for a wide age range • Children’s clothes • Children’s underwear • Women’s underwear • Shower gels • Shampoos • Conditioners • Hair brushes • Toothbrushes • Toothpaste
We'd also like to say a huge thank you to everybody who has supported this appeal so far! 💜💚
