Yet again our volunteers have been a huge support helping out on our last day of taking donations at the donation center for now.
Well done to all.
Thank you Swansea for the overwhelming amount of support given. We could not have achieved this alone.Together great things can be accomplished.
The needs will continue and we will be updating the page as they unfold.
Currently the greatest need is for housing and so we will be turning our efforts to fundraising events. Please watch this page for details.
