We Need Your Shoes!
We are delighted to be taking part in this year’s Our Shoes campaign, collecting pre-loved sports shoes and sending them to children in African townships.
Watch this video to learn more about Our Shoes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sclgs57EsVU&t=97s
We need:
- Used but in good condition children’s sports shoes (runners, sneakers, football boots, etc.)
- Just ask yourself: Would you be happy for your child to still wear them if they hadn’t been outgrown?
- Clean shoes – they need to be reasonably clean, i.e., no obvious dirt or muck. Check the soles.
- Shoes tied together securely via the laces, with cable ties, or strong elastic bands.
Shoes will be collected during 9am classes every day this week.
So, get up into the attic and check under the stairs now!
