Report written by Peter Van Tongeren

Share the love

One of the charities close to Dans heart is the Magpie Project, so with Christmas approaching the idea was to collect lots of little presents and bits to give to the kids, on behalf of 'Santa'.

The word went out in the local communities, lots of people responded, to the point of almost overwhelming the organisers, but working together the team of rugby players & local mums & goodgymmers got an incredible amount sorted and wrapped and packed - bags full of toys are ready to be send out!

Several boxes of books will be finding their way to a hospital, while clothing will be sorted and bagged up for an upcoming project in January.

Thanks very much for all the help, both receiving and sorting as wrapping & labeling!
