I want to say a very big 'Thank you' to all of you who have been dropping your old plastic bags off to me, so our members of Aranui Handiscope can turn them into bed rolls for the homeless. Next week we are doing a hand over to the 'City Mission' and Salvation Army, so they can give the bed rolls to those who really need them. It has been a long time, due to the long process in making them, but we are delighted to be handing some over. We still want any of your plastic bags, so if you have any - can you please drop off to me at 68 shortland st or to St Ambrose Church 309 Breezes Road. Tues - Friday.  We deeply appreciate your support and it has been wonderful to see many people calling into our group on a Tuesday to see how a bedroll is made from the bags - many people have left in amazement and keen to do more. If you can crochet and would like to learn how to make a bed roll, please touch base with us as we want many more people to help us out . If you have any questions you are able to touch base with me. We are wanting any old wool too, as some of our members are going to make small baby blankets for those in need . So we have two lots going to support those in our community. Have  a lovely week and thank you so much for your continued support.  Regards Julie 3884 184 or 027 4518796
