My husband's company have made a large donation as well as sending their experienced staff to the area to help with setting up communications as well as other gestures. I am printing off all of my Pre-school photos today that I have taken since September andwill sell them for a minimum donation of 50p to the parents. Not a lot, but every little helps. jacky
