School Prize<\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome Boxes for Women<\/strong>\u2019<\/strong>s Refuge<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We supply the refuge in Lancaster with decorated boxes containing food and drink items so that each woman can be given one upon arrival. Our boxes make a real difference in the first difficult day or so until the necessary benefits can be put in place for her. Although we never meet the recipients, we like them to know that other women care.<\/p>\n
