TRACY’S GARAGE IS NOW CLOSED FOR THE WINTER!!!!!

Having done 3 Boot Fairs this summer, the last one being yesterday and the third and final shipment for this year all packed up and ready to go next week I am closing my garage doors until next spring.

I am heading out to Gambia in November with a few volunteers to work in the library at the school with the children and to get their garden we are funding started. All the clothes and school resources that we have shipped this year will be there waiting for us to distribute.

So once again a massive thank you to all of you who have donated and supported as this would not be possible without you.

THANK YOU 🙏🙏🙏###

So school is out for summer in Gambia and work has begun on renovating the toilet block ready for the students to return to in September thanks to all your wonderful donations which has enabled us to raise the funds from our Boot Fairs.

So to remind you of the toilets that were currently in use the school asked if we could help them by providing new doors, painting, putting on a new roof and guttering and generally making the toilets more useable👏👏 I can’t wait to see the finished result and might even try them out in November xx

WHAT DOES 2026 HOLD FOR GIVING FOR GAMBIA?

So all our fundraising efforts this year will be to raise money to update the school toilets.
The school have asked if we can help them to renovate their toilets so that they are more hygienic and suitable for the children and staff to use as these are their current ones!!!!!
So please help support us we will be continuing with our Boot Fairs this year so happy to receive your donated items to sell and are hoping to host another quiz evening - watch out for details - thank you ###x

OUR FINISHED LIBRARY👏👏

So yet again another wonderful trip and the welcome we received from the school was overwhelming. They are absolutely delighted with their finished library as this time we provided them with desks, lighting, ceiling fans and a water station to complete it.
We spent a few days there working with the children in the library and they were such fun and keen to learn.
This would never have been possible without all of your support and donations.
Thank you again to Gemini Lighting for their support and Wainscott Primary School for the donation of all the exercise books we were able to take to the school.
We also again distributed the many clothes you have donated to the community and they are gratefully received.
THANK YOU EVERYONE ###x
