Will it contain just food or all items?
Soon as I receive I'll go to Sainsbury's. I'll also do the collecting of items from there. Waiting to hear back from Asda Marina.

Does anybody have, or know someone who has, a medium sized caravan that could be lent to the FoM for a short period (prob around a month or 2). This would be put at the new warehouse facility in Southampton and provide some facilities for the volunteers working htere until the permanent ones are in place.
Update on the warehouse equipment appeal; see my post above
We now have enough desks, a filing cabinet, cupboard and bookcase and 4 fire extinguishers. We have been donated a monitor and had a printer promised to us. We still need the PC itself.
Also the scales requested, do not need to be as large (that was a brainfreeze by Nicola who is setting up the depot) we need scales that will weigh up to 50 kg
Many thanks
Tim

We had collections from 3 local schools and about 70/80 boxes going to Southampton tomorrow. Loads of family boxes, boxes of gloves, disinfectants, loads of medical items, foos, baby items and people giving whole medical boxes!
Everyone helping were near to tears at times with the fantastic generosity 😄
