We recognise and support the immense pain and suffering being endured by the Ukrainian people and the desire by residents of Thorpe St Andrew to offer practical help to them at this time.
As such we are acting as a collection point for the most essential items – First Aid and medical equipment and Toiletries.
For our first collection, our Estates Officer will be on site at the Town Council Offices on Tuesday March 22nd to receive these items ONLY between 9 – 3pm.
Please do not attempt to drop off outside these hours.
In partnership with Rotary Norwich Blackfriars, we will also be ‘bucket collecting‘ donations on the day.
We would like to take the opportunity to thank all our residents who have already asked about donating items and hope that they will be able to join us in supplying the items most needed. Please see the list below for clarification on what can be given.
