Due to 'Covid kilos', I have increased in clothing size!

I will 'spring clean' my wardrobe and donate to the Grandmothers. I am happy to pay the postage of the parcel.

Fitzroy Crossing is a place I visited a few years ago. This community needs our help.

This is a great opportunity to donate clothing and items to the Grandmothers. It is an excellent initiative by their community.
