Hub Update
The Long Flat, Crescent Road, and Gympie Angels hubs are currently looking for a large shed close to town for the storage of all the donations that have come in. Alternatively, a couple of smaller sheds would be good too.
We have an over abundence of clothing, which combined with linen, could take a reasonable sized shed on its own.
If you know of any premises that are currently vacant and might be suitable, please call either Carolyn (0413 669 696), Dallace (0407 498 794), or Holly (0411 685 461).
