When you buy a new pair of shoes or your freinds or housemates buy a new pair, grab the box! Or, if you're feeling daring, go in to your local shoe shop and ask for boxes...The more the better!

Also, If you have any unwanted Christmas presents or tolietries you've got free at fresher's fair or from hotels stayed in on exotic summer holidays, save them to put in the boxes! Or any other unwanted items!

Keep them at home, or if they're piling high in your room bring them to the sports and activity centre in the students union. In a few weeks we can make up the boxes at a marathon present wrapping session!...date to be confirmed!
