On this day we will collect together empty shoeboxes, full shoeboxes, items and presents to go in the boxes - you can bring along one or many! And any spare wrapping paper if you have it! The little presents can be new or second hand, from a charity shop or your own unwanted gifts.

The idea is to put together as many full shoeboxes as we can, so lots of present wrapping! Then CORF will send the boxes off the children in orphanages in Bulgaria.

It will be a fun evening and there may even be a drink in the bar afterwards, courtesy of Junction49!

See you there. :)
