If anyone wishes to donate summer clothing, pots and pans, dried food, tins of food, tents ground sheets etc. the Buddhist Community Centre in Letchworth Hertfordshire are doing a massive collection to send out, goods can be delivered in person to 32 High Avenue Letchworth or you can telephone 01462 641326 to have the items collected. UPDATE We are doing very very well and now have enough to fill the first container to be shipped to Sri Lanka tomorrow but we would appreciate any strong men that can assist with the loading of our boxes into the container please contact the above number if you can help or email me. A huge huge thanks to everyone and keep it coming.
