If you have some outdoor clothing you want to get rid off, Finn and Laura from Blackshaw Environmental Action would like to use it for asylum seekers who visit Blackshaw Head. They need all sizes for children and adults.

Laura & Finn are inviting asylum seekers and refugees living in Rochdale to Blackshaw Head on a regular basis for day trips. They will be able to use our garden (growing stuff, playing football, etc), do walks in the area and do volunteering work. We will also have some families coming for a week during the summer period to have a holiday.

However, they often do not have appropriate outdoor clothing. When Finn spoke to some twenty of them this morning it turned out that none of them own a pair of wellies.

So if you have any outdoor clothing that you don’t need, Finn & Laura are happy to pick it up at your house or you can drop it in their porch at Warcock Hill Barn, Long Causeway, Blackshaw Head HX77JB  You can contact Laura & Finn on Tel 01422 846863 or Email: finn.jensen@rocketmail.com
