CIRDIC update from Lynn Smith


I dropped the donations left at St Stephens to CIRDIC Monday morning and had a catch up and chat with some of the people outside. Apart from the many “regulars” I speak to I’ve noticed over the last few months that there are more younger people who’ve been using the centre – a sad sign of the times – but how wonderful it is that CIRDIC is there.

I asked the centre manager if they had anything (alongside the usual things they need) that they are in particular need of over the next couple of weeks - and they have a special request for :

  • men’s spray deodorant (not roll on),

  • men’s underpants,

  • large disposable paper coffee cups, and

  • takeaway containers.

Thank you everyone for your continued support.

God Bless,

Lynn

Please leave your donations in St Stephen's lobby in the basket on the left hand side. You can do this on Monday and Friday during Post Office hours or Wednesday and Sunday between 10 am and 4 pm.
