Message from Alyson Lister, Ruyton XI Towns Parish Council.
All donations can be taken to The Talbot Inn on Church Street Ruyton SY4 1LA where Paul the licensee has kindly offered to store and help transport the goods to the nearest hub for sorting and rapid despatch to The Ukraine on Wednesday this week.
The following list is the type of items most needed but is in no particular order and not exhaustive so please use your own judgment and be as generous as you can.
If you cannot deliver items yourself and have no other means of getting them there please message the RXIT Parish Council website so a volunteer can assist you.
Good luck and thank you in advance to everyone involved. ??
