Help needed to complete Christmas parcels for C4WS
Last year as we got towards Christmas we thought the beds for the C4WS guests looked a bit bare so we bought each of them a Terry’s chocolate orange. But we wanted to do more this year so we have been assembling Christmas parcels for each of the 16 guests.
The parcels vary a bit. Each will include a Chocolate Orange and then some practical items like a small tube of toothpaste, a toothbrush, comb, soap, a flannel or sponge, sanitizer gel or wipes, lip balm, pens, a pencil, notepads and a Sudoku or crossword book for each bag.
also wanted to include a woollen scarf and hat for each person. Jenny has a friend who, with her husband, has retired to live in in a home overlooking Ambleside. They have a knitting group in the home and she agreed that after they finished knitting items for another charity they would make hats and scarves for C4WS. However one of the party fell ill and in the upset no one checked and all the hats and scarves they had made for C4WS were sent off to the other charity! So we need 15 hats and scarves (suitable for men or women) for our Christmas parcels by the beginning of December, either knitted or bought. You can leave them at the back of church marked for Jenny Bunn. We will also plan to put a plastic box on the back shelf that you can put them in.
