Thankyou all for the support last year.
Join us to help make a difference this year on November 15th 2008.
See below for the complete list of items that we need. Scarves, gloves and hats are always in short supply if you are a keen knitter!
Last year, 702 boxes were wrapped and packed ready for sending
at our Gift Wrap Day on 17th November 2007
THE POWER OF A SIMPLE GIFT WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY AND PEWSEY VALE SCHOOL TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
(Above) Stephen Longson explains the Gift Wrap Day to a member of our local community.
If you’ve never been to a Gift Wrap Morning at Pewsey Methodist, its a fun time, set out like a giant jumble sale with a packing production line to produce a Gift of Love to send to a Child in need. You go around each table adding items to the empty shoe box you collected at the door as you entered. Click here to view images from our previous Gift Wrap Day.
If you would like to know more or would like to arrange to drop off items to fill boxes, please call Stephen Longson on 01672 563171 or email Stephen@longson.fsnet.co.uk.
