Thank you so much for kindly donating the canes to Oasis church in Colliers Wood who is sending a team to Burundi. The canes will be given to a local charity called “Kanura”, which look after blind children and young people.
‘Just to let you know that the white canes you donated were received with thanks by the blind children at a school in Burundi. The headteacher was so grateful as children can now move round with no-one holding their hands’.
