Blythswood Shoebox Appeal 2022

SHOE BOX APPEAL

The Blythswood Shoe Box Appeal is now well under way with many boxes being handed in.  Over the next few weeks we will be sorting and checking the boxes in preparing to going on the lorry.  This is a requirement by customs and gives us an opportunity to ensure every box has the right items in them and to add the Christian literature.  You can get involved at our Head Office in Deephaven  throughout the month of November, between 9 and 5.  You are welcome to turn up when it suits yourself, or contact (01349) 830 777 to let them know you are coming.  After a two-year break, thanks to the pandemic, we are also returning to Culduthel Christian Centre in Inverness to sort and check the boxes.  If you are able to give an hour or two, we would be so grateful.  Please contact danny.muschate@blythswood.org for more information or to book a time slot.  Thank you Elma MacKay, North Scotland Area Fundraising Manager, Blythswood Care
