A huge thank you to the children, their parents and the staff at Bellissima Nursery who collected two large crates of food for the food bank.

In the run up to Christmas the items that foodbank most require are:
men's and ladies toiletries such as shower gel and shampoo and household goods - toilet rolls washing detergent, washing up liquid, nappies, 10p bags for life, coffee and desserts.


As ever these can be delivered to reception at the surgery or left at Sainsbury's Station Road, West Wickham.

Bromley Homeless Shelter

A massive thank you for your support and sponsorship for the sleepout.  The evening was a great success. Twenty nine of us slept out dotted about the churchyard. It was a wet night but our spirits were still good the next morning.

My sponsors pledged a massive £730.01 (and there is still time to add to this 🙂)

Overall donations have exceeded £10,600 and it has spread the word about the issues of homelessness.  Please keep the homeless in mind as we approach winter and thank you again on behalf of the shelter's guests and clients.
