The annual nationwide Love Grace Appeal has begun. It started on Valentine’s Day.
It is hoped Mid Cantabrians will be generous, as they were last year, when 126 bags from Ashburton were among 5296 nationwide.
Donators fill their handbags with new items such as toiletries, pens and notebooks. The bags are given to Mid-South Island Women’s Refuge and Family Services in Timaru, which covers Mid Canterbury.
The appeal was established in memory of British 21-year-old tourist Grace Millane, murdered by her date when visiting New Zealand in 2018.
Filled bags can be dropped at Beauty Worx Day & Medi Spa, 278 Tancred St, until International Women’s Day on March 8.
