I am travelling out to help volunteer in the Calais warehouse to support refugees on Sun 30th December. The Help Refugees/Choose Love organisations are still doing crucial humanitarian work for those fleeing conflict, hardship and suffering. We have been asked to bring donations with us, if at all poss.

The list of what is needed is https://helprefugees.org/calais/needs-list/

Can you please look and see if you can donate at all? I suggest maybe PM me if you can donate from this list. The need is for mainly for basic living items in cold and damp conditions - such as warm and waterproof clothing, bedding and tents. I can try to arrange a collection/drop-off for any item.

More info about the situation on the French Channel coast is at https://helprefugees.org/about/. There is an ongoing need for volunteers, donations and funds too, if folk are interested in helping.

Thank you all in advance. Merry Xmas to all EDF users. Best M

  Yes, we have a Casio CT-S100 we no longer need, except I dont think we have the headphones any more. It has a USB connection. £50? https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7333639

  Thank you! She is both spayed and microchipped, and reported missing on Petlog and with the vets. She normally never goes out the front, certainly for never more than 10-15 minutes, so this is definitely new territory for her. There is lots of dense foliage across the road so there are plenty of places she could be hiding if she is spooked, so we are hoping she will come back when she is calm. The weather isn't helping, she never goes out in the rain. Thank you again!

  Hi, Have you been letting her out the front door onto the street or would this be a first & therefore unfamiliar with the area? Does she respond to a name & is she spayed & microchipped? Our team carry scanners on our daily routes & will of course be looking our for her. I hope you are reunited with her soon. If not already, notify your street & surrounding streets (find out if they have Whatsapp groups) Dox will print & deliver free missing posters https://www.doxdirect.com/help/free-missing-pet-posters/ Call her at dusk & dawn when street & foot traffic is at its lowest.
