Hello, (Re: Monitor wanted) - I would like a monitor for the Foxfield Steam Railway, Stoke on Trent (www.foxfieldrailway.co.uk), for use in the offices.
The railway is a non-profit organisation run by volunteers and operating on a small margin (coal, insurance, etc are increasingly costly!), naturally struggles to purchase such items new. The monitor would be used for admin and publicity work at the railway's headquarters in Blythe Bridge.
I hope you consider this to be a worthwhile cause, and look forward to hearing from you. Regards, George Denscombe
Help desperately needed for Garden Hand Tools etc
Hi, we are a charity called Beacon Employment and we work with adults and children with learning difficulties, autistic spectrum disorders and complex emotional needs. We have created a two acre site connected to a local Hotel called the Granary. We are attempting to sustain a horticulture project which aims to train our clients in skills that will lead to employment or meaningful voluntary work.
We are desperately in need of garden hand tools etc. and recently we had our only sit on mower stolen from the site that was used by our mobile service team. Any donations of garden related tools etc would be very much appreciated. We are based in Kidderminster.
Thank you Kind Regards Rob Baker, Fundraising Manager
