Story
The Nursery of Narnia has set up an operation called "Operation Dawn Treader," an operation setup to support children in need all over the world, not just at home.
This is the teams first tour and we are seeking to raise enough money and donated items to take one of the minibuses to Lviv in Ukraine, leaving on 15th December loaded with specific support items such as nappies, hygiene products, small toys, panettone cake, chocolate, basic medical supplies, blankets, sleeping bags, hot water bottles, hats, scarfs thick winter socks and gloves no other clothes please.
We are aware that there are many families unable to access the aid we send via conventional means and after we spoke to you our families and found many of you dont donate as you rightly can't be sure it will get to the intended recipient.
Op Dawn Treader enables you to place your trust in us as the carers of your own children to get the aid there, we hope this will also teach our children to learn about caring for those less fortunate and recognise the value of giving and caring for others and being part of a bigger cause than our own.
The operation will be led and completed by our own staff to ensure personally that your donations get to the families and children who need it most.
We need to have collected any donated provisions together by the 15th December at either :
The Nursery of Narnia
Winton Road
Stratton
SN3 4WF
OR
The Nursery of Narnia
Moredon Community Centre
The Street
SN25 3ER
Thank you for any support you can offer whether its money or provisons every bit will help.
