🥫 Tinned fish
🥫 Tinned vegetables

🥫 Breakfast cereals – cornflakes, muesli
🥫 Tinned/cuppa soup
🥫 Two-minute noodles
🥫 Tinned spaghetti
🥫 Sanitary items

🥫 Toothbrushes
🥫 Shampoo and conditioner

If you can spare and item or two, donations can be dropped off directly to our Newtown Welfare hub or any of our nine Wellington op shops.
