Do you swish ?

Are you a lady or chap who swishes? Do you get together to swap some of your fancy gladrags over a few bottles of fizz? If so, perhaps this year you might consider donating these items instead to With Kids.


We are looking for previously loved high quality frocks, handbags and shoes for an ebay blitz in October and November. All items sold will go to purchase presents for children in the East End of Glasgow at Christmas.


For these children Christmas is a bittersweet time of the year. They are surrounded by all the accoutrements, trinkets and affluence of Christmas yet know that they will be fortunate if they receive any kind of gift themselves. Just one of your lightly worn accessories could make this a Christmas to remember for a child.


Perhaps you could also pass these details around some of your friends.


Everyone wins from this initiative. You get to clear out your wardrobe to make room for new gear at Christmas and children less fortunate get presents.


If you are able to help, please could you drop off your donation during office hours to With Kids, 15 Annfield Place, Dennistoun, Glasgow. G31 2XE or if that’s not possible Bob will arrange collection – his e mail address is b.leck@withkids.org.uk or telephone 0141 550 5770.
