A wonderful project has been set up by a local lady, Brenda Dommett, alongside some residents of Galanos House to turn your old plastic bags into something useful!

Together they are creating as many rug/bed roll as they can from our old plastic bags, which will all be donated to a homeless charity who will then be able to distribute to rough sleepers. The rugs are ideal due to their warmth, waterproof abilities and light weight.

Each rug takes over 500 bags to make. Therefore we are appealing to you to donate any plastic bags you have laying around to this wonderful cause. There is a clearly labelled donation bin outside the visiting pod at Galanos house, Southam where we accept these bags. Please do not drop these off at the Surgery.

If anyone has an queries regarding this project, please contact Brenda Dommett directly through brenda@priors-marston.co.uk as she is the lady behind this lovely project.
