Request: Various items (DH9) Imagine a father who has endured unimaginable hardship, fleeing domestic violence to protect his two young daughters. He’s found safety in a new home—a blank slate—but it’s just that: empty. No warmth, no comfort, no tools to rebuild their lives. His daughters, aged 7 and 8, are resilient but deserve the joy of childhood—soft bedding to snuggle into, toys to spark their imaginations, and curtains to shield them from the world they’ve left behind. This family needs the basics to turn their house into a home: cutlery for shared meals, a microwave for quick dinners, rugs to soften their steps, and throws to wrap themselves in comfort. Every item is a step toward healing, a reminder that they are cared for and supported. Can you help this father and his daughters start anew? Your kindness could be the foundation of their fresh start, bringing light and hope to a family that has fought so hard to find safety. Let’s make their house a home.
Request: Garden Shades Paint or Ducksback (Grindon SR4) Grindon Church Community Project would love Garden Shades paint, any colour, for its recycled toddlers playground. To cover fencing, benches and mud kitchen in colour. Happy to collect to suit. Thanks for any offers. Kati and GCCP

Free: Hedgetrimmer- spares or repair (Dairy Lane Estate DH4) S&J 450W hedgetrimmer, works after a fashion BUT when it hits a woody stem of any size it goes into "chatter" mode until stopped. Only a few years old and not much used but out of guarantee so no S&J support. Last time I buy any S&J.

Free: Garden shed (Ouston DH2) Reoffered is a ‘BillyOh’ Apex shed 10’ x 6’ tongue and groove construction suitable for an allotment or garden after a little TLC. This shed requires new roofing felt and ideally new roof boards and an area of the floor needs replacing. One window (plastic) is OK but weathered – the other is cracked and weathered. The shed has taken on a lean as can be see in the photos but I’m sure this can be rectified. None of the side panels show any signs of rot. This shed is dismantled (roughly 9 pieces on all) but will have to be collected. The largest piece is 6’ x 7’ so you will require a suitably large vehicle. Please only reply if you are serious
