Pamper Packs for Womens Refuge

Sue from Ascot Park

Hi there, I am once again getting organized to put together pamper packs (shoebox size) for the Womens Refuge. I did this last year and got about 15 packs & 10 boys/girls activity packs done and distributed.
I am seeking donations of women's hygiene products ie: sanitary, body wash, razors, toothbrushes (also boys/girls) toothpaste, wipes, deodorants, body lotion, shampoo/conditioner, makeup / makeup bags, chocolates, etc
For the boys/girls I had activity book, pencils, note books, hair ties for girls, matchbox cars for boys, bubble wands, stickers, chocolate bars, etc
My aim is to double the packs for all this xmas, I drop them off week before Xmas to Womens Refuge. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated (not just by me but the women who use Womens Refuge) :)
Easier to contact me on 027 414 6779, I can collect items if that suits, thanks xx

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
