THANK you for publishing my appeal for knitting wool for Operation Christmas Child.

The response has been fantastic up to Sunday evening 21 calls, and I am still going round collecting. This will keep our knitters going for a long time, which we needed, as we make hats and mittens all year round and use up the wool quite quickly.

Please keep up the good work of supporting this very worthwhile charity this year and in the future. I know that people like to contribute because everything goes directly to those who need it, without the administration costs taken by the larger charities.

S THOMASON,

Trowbridge.
