Toys to Salvos

Men's Sheds across the Central Coast can be proud of their contibution to Christmas this year.
Individual sheds contributed toys made throughout the year to support local families in need of toys for kids this Christmas.


The Salvation Army agreed to collect the toys from Mens Shed's at their Christmas Gathering at Alison Homestead, Wyong and distribute them to familes in need this Christmas.

Not sure of the number of contributions or the volume of donated items, the Salvation Army officer turned up in uniform to accept the Shedder contribution. He soon realised that a truck was required and returned after the celebration to load up. He was assisted in loading by Roman Paull, his wife and President, John Sharples.

After the fire on Saturday Morning, media notified of the event previously, contacted Mens Sheds Central Coast concerned about the loss of the toys. Quickly reassured that the toys would be arriving at the event and this event would proceed, they made arrangments to cover the story.  

Nothing stops Santa or Shedders !!!
