People are being urged to be quick with clothes donations to Ella’s Syrian Appeal.
The appeal to support migrant children caught up in the crisis was launched by Spalding couple Mark and Sarah Le Sage a fortnight ago is ending on Saturday.(October 3)
Dozens of bags of clothes suitable for 0-18 years have been donated and will be transported to provide aid next week.
Mark, who funded signwriting for the collection van, thanks all the collection points and Spalding Signs, Dirty Marks and Pro Coat for their help.
Ella’s Syrian Appeal is a spin-off from Ella’s Project, which will continue to find homes for good quality, clean clothes for children aged 0-5 years. Ella is the Le Sages’ two-year-old daughter.
South Holland district councillor Jack McLean (Spalding St John’s ward) has donated £150 to Ella’s Project and said: “As a charity heavily connected with my ward I feel immensely grateful for their hard work in the town and I will do all I can to ensure they are able to maintain that hard work.
“I am aware of certain running costs that will soon see through the money I have provided from the ward budget, but we are both looking to work together in other ways as well.”
