Plastic Milk Bottle Tops
We have been asked by Mr & Mrs Jewell of Rose Cottage, Throwleigh Road, South Zeal to ask for help in collecting these for a worthwhile cause – they have to collect enough to balance the weight of a mother, whose child requires a wheelchair to enable it to be obtained free of charge. They can either be delivered direct or passed into school and Sue will pass them on.
