Dear Friends,
This Christmas, the National Traveller Men’s Forum (N.T.M.F.) is reaching out with our annual Shoe Box Appeal β€” supporting boys, girls, and adults in emergency accommodation and those living on the streets.
While many face a difficult winter and the government can’t always meet every need, we can do our part to bring warmth, comfort, and hope. Every small act of kindness matters.
How it works:
Find an empty shoe box.
Fill it with gifts and useful items (see below).
Wrap and label it β€” Boy/Girl/Adult, and include an age if possible.
Drop it off by December 15th.

What to include:
🎁 Small toys or books
🎨 Art supplies
🧴 Toiletries
🧀 Warm accessories (hats, gloves, socks)
🍬 Sweets and treats

Together, we can remind people who are struggling that they are cared for and not forgotten. A simple shoebox can bring a smile, comfort, and the warmth of community spirit this Christmas.

If you’d like to take part or arrange a drop-off, please contact:
πŸ“§ chrisstokes@ldco.ie
πŸ“ž 085 208 5301
or alternatively your box can be dropped off here at:
Shannonside Community Centre, Rosebank, Carrick on Shannon
N41 DY99

Let’s spread warmth and joy this winter β€” because even when others can’t, we can make a difference.
