Help pack for seafarers
The packing of more than 1 000 parcels takes place on Tuesday, 26 November.
VOLUNTEER your time to help the Sailors’ Society pack gifts which will be handed out to seafarers on visiting ships over Christmas.
The packing of more than 1 000 parcels takes place on Tuesday, 26 November from 9am at the Seafarer’s Mission, Bayhead.
Seafarers are far from home, away from their families and miss all the Christmas celebrations. To ensure that they are not forgotten, the Missions join forces and collect and make items which are wrapped and distributed to seafarers. Gifts will be distributed in the port on 13 December and at outer anchorage on 23 December.
There will be refreshments after work is complete. If you can help, contact Linda on 031 266 0695.
