We rely on the kindness and generosity of our neighbours. At present, we have a unprecedented demand for our services. We require a larger storage shed ideally close to central New Plymouth. The catch is, we are not able to pay for it. Any money we get, goes into buying more household items for people in need. Is there a storage shed not being used, that is safe and secure, that is easy to get in and out of, 5 - 7 days a week.
