Doug we are hoping to enlist the help of Safeway via the SFA and their connections.
Obviously Marjory who is our main contact in there has been up to her eyes with work since Berti's arrival but we hope that now we might be able to take it forward. I will keep you posted on developments

Right, letter to Fisher Price has been done and will go off at lunchtime.
I've also emailed Crayola in the US to see if they've got a UK contact whom we could ask for a donation of crayons, activity packs, colouring books etc. They seem to do a fair bit of donation stuff in the US, but there was nothing on their website about the UK. They're currently shut for the Thanksgiving holiday, but hopefully I'll hear from them sometime next week.
I'll keep you posted on both responses.

TS, et all
I have e-mailed Staedler in Wales with the same request for stationery, no response.
I was also wondering if any wallpaper donations were required

A wee update:
I received an email from the people who make Crayola crayons in the US, giving me contact details for their UK office. I've emailed them this morning requesting a donation of crayons, activity packs or colouring books. I'll let you know how it goes.....

Thanks for that Robbo if anything comes up I will let you know.
It looks like Margaret might need some help covering those 700 jotters 
Well done Margaret, I guess that is us covered for Jotters then.
There will be things that we are very successful in attaining and obviously there is no problem with that because we will just store whatever is left for the next mission.
