Gardenman Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I am taking my van down to Lesbos in Greece for Christmas to help the thousands of refugees from Syria who are stuck in the country, as the borders are closed to them. I am hoping to load the van full, so I need a church or a hall where people can take the goods, toys, blankets,non perishable foods, & I can load them from there. I only have a small flat! As soon as this is done, I will update if you wish to make a contribution of any kind. If you wish to make a donation, I will set up an account for this. I have approached some charities to help, but have not received a reply! I am paying for the trip myself & would welcome someone, a volunteer to map read & help when we get down there. Any questions?

Gardenman Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 Thank you both of you. I have had a reply from Drapinhavet ( Drop in the ocean) & will be coordinating my trip with them. Very excited. I just need a centrally located place to collect the goods together. So if anyone has a place where people can bring their donations for the next 2 weeks I would be very grateful. More details to follow:Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardenman Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 No success yet in finding a collection place locally in East Dulwich. So, I repeat, if anyone knows of somewhere where people can bring clothes, toys, non perishable foods, shoes. It will only be for two weeks & im happy to man the place if needed. Any questions, please call meNigel07961888253 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
