PREPARATIONS for this year’s Operation Christmas Child are under way but organiser Steve Lloyd is desperately searching for a warehouse as he is expecting around 25,000 boxes this year.
The collection is run by relief charity Samaritan’s Purse, and sends thousands of shoeboxes full of presents to impoverished children around the world.
Steve said, “We have already had a great response from people wanting to donate boxes, but we haven’t got anywhere to put anything.
“Please, if anyone can offer us a warehouse for free or at a cheap rate, we would be so grateful.
“We want to continue to help others and make a difference in people’s lives, especially children, but we need the space to do it.”
For more information or to discuss a possible space, call Steve on 07715 843872.
