The girls have become passionate supporters of women and children who have to flee their homes due to domestic violence.
They have been busy sewing bags and canvassing for essential items to fill them.
They originally wrote to the Lithgow Workies Club asking for children’s activity packs to put in the children’s bags and were overwhelmed with the incredible response of the much needed blankets, towels and toiletries.

The group sent its thanks to Chantelle Hull, who delivered and presented them, Julie Rushworth, the Motel manager and Geoff Wheeler, the general manager who made it all possible.
If any one would like to donate to this important cause, the group is still in need of long life food items, clothes detergent, small toys, books and games, hair brushes, oral hygiene products etc.
The bags will be donated to the Women’s Crisis Centre manager and Sergeant Darryl Goodwin, the White Ribbon Ambassador, at the White Ribbon Assembly at Lithgow High School in November.
Please call Lithgow High School on 6352 1422 if you would like to help the cause in any way.
