Thank you to all the girls and their families who contributed shoeboxes filled with gifts to this year’s appeal for Link to Hope. We have sent 110 fantastic boxes to Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Ukraine where elderly people and families will benefit greatly.

Thank you to everyone and a special thanks must be extended to Miss Oldfield who once again led the coordination of this worthwhile charitable initiative.
