We have been contacted by Barnsley Independent Alzheimer's & Dementia Support to help with their Christmas campaign to give gifts to the families who use their services. They would really like tins of biscuits or sweets and we have been given a target of collecting 50. It would be fantastic if you could support this campaign and donate a box of biscuits or sweets which we can pass onto BIADS.

If you are attending any of our events/council meetings between now and 5th December, please could you bring your donation gift with you and we will make sure it gets to BIADS.

Our next big event is on 23rd November, Chocolate Tasting Night at Holiday Inn Barnsley and it would be brilliant if people could start bringing their donation gifts to the event.

Why not pop along to drop off your gifts even if you can't make the chocolate tasing event, or drop us an email and we'll let you know where we are going to be between now and 5th December and I'm sure we can sort out a mutual meeting point. I work in Dodworth so am happy to meet anyone over lunchtime.
