Desks, chairs and pcs available now!

21 October 2008 - Connect Reading

The Wokingham Mobility Partnership has been offered 10 Desks, chairs and PC’s from a London based business but has no means of collecting these items. They only require half of the donated goods therefore would like to offer any voluntary or community sector organisation the other half, if you can help them pick them up and bring them back to Reading/Wokingham. The items need to be picked up either on 27 October or 31 October at the latest.
