So caring - 10 reminders of how South Tyneside people have helped others at Christmas through the Shoebox Appeal
The people of South Tyneside are so caring and Christmas time is no different.
The annual Shoebox Appeal always gets strong support in town and here are some reminders of the excellent work you have done over the years to help others.
People pack shoeboxes to be sent to those in need and the project has had wonderful support in the past at Harton School, St Bede’s RC Primary, Whitburn School and Epinay.
We have reminders of the big-hearted donations you have made over the years. Take a look.
