“I remember going to the local school with the kids to meet the trucks rolling in with donations to help us and how great that felt to know someone cared,” Grocott said. “I was watching the news last night and I thought, ‘now it s time for us to return the favour’.” Anyone who wants to donate good quality items can drop them off to 6 Brancroft Place, Parklands; Christchurch Community Talk and Support, Burnside; 3 Gillatt Gardens, Halswell; and 75 Proctor St, Papanui.
