What is needed!
We have written over the past few days of the wonderful effort of ordinary people in our community who have taken action to try and help their fellow man, woman and child.
The Newry Lions Club is co-ordinating a drive to raise funds and supplies for the refugees. A convoy will leave Cork enroute to Calais at the end of September to drop off the much needed supplies.
Here is a list of supplies that are urgently needed. You can drop off your donations - every little bit helps - at Warrenpoint Town Hall or the Cloughmore Inn, Rostrevor!
