One of our daughter's friends is collecting sleeping bags and other times, including children's clothes. They're going to a main collection point locally for onward transport to Calais.
I emailed our local refugee support group over a week ago, wanting to volunteer but haven't heard anything. I plan to phone them tomorrow. I saw a Save the Children ad on tv today, starving children in Africa - I was giving my 4 month old, chubby and thriving, grandson a bottle when the ad came on. The famine in Biafra was on tv when my grandson's mum was a new born - not a lot changes does it. I'm planning to send cash for the famine relief.
Feeling very fortunate, very sad and also, distressed by the selfishness and lack of simple compassion shown by some people in the face of the dreadful news on our tv screens currently.
