MENS SHED TOOL APPEAL
Subject: Mens shed tool appeal.
Thanks to the generosity of Summerset on Cavendish retirement village, they have donated a brand new facility for use as a men's shed which will help us oldies to create projects for charity, and also enable us to continue our hobbies and do minor repairs and jobs for those residents who are are no longer able to do these themselves.
And to this end we are appealing to the very generous members of Neighbourly for donations of tools which you no longer need or use, to equip our now empty workshop. Any tools ( hand or machine ) would be greatly appreciated , and would be put to very good use by some of our very skilful residents and would help them pass their days productively. If you are able to help please contact Ken on 027 682 8820 or 354 11820. We would gladly pick any up at anytime that suits you. Any donations would be greatly appreciated and well loved and cared for. Thank you.
