APCM Advance Notice
Sunday, April 3rd 2022 immediately after Morning Prayer

Since I last wrote we have passed on 8 sacks of warm clothing to the Peterborough Homeless charity. Thank you so much for your kindness.

You may have read about the lifeline that dogs give to the homeless and that many homeless folk will feed their dogs before they feed themselves. You will see that I have added dog food to the list.

Items needed:
Sleeping bags, 2-person tents (not pop-up as these are not weatherproof and they blow away), yoga/camping mats, trainers with good soles sizes 8-10, torches, stoves, anything camping related.

Men’s jeans 30″- 32″ waist
M/L joggers or similar,
M/L winter/waterproof coats
Medium – new/unused boxers
New/unused socks
Dog food – self-opening cans or dried food

Homeless people are rarely XL so please no bigger than large size.
Neither duvets nor pillows can be accepted.

Many thanks for your ongoing support.
