The Parents Association
Has been a tower of strength during the year. In addition to kill
gifts of bulbs for the garden, indoor games and recreational equipment, we
are also indebted to its panel of volunteers who baby sit for our mothers
of young children and thus enable these mothers to take our children to
keep Clinic Appointments in person which otherwise they could not do.
