We have an ongoing program to replace equipment that has reach the end of its serviceable life, either because it has worn out, broken or reached its expiry date.
If you wish to make a donation, you may like to make it for a specific purpose listed here. If you are a manufacturer or importer you may like to consider donating the items directly. If the list is blank, that doesn't mean we don't need your financial help, it just means that there isn't anything specific at present. We still have our other expenses such as fuel, insurance, heating and lighting, vehicle maintenance etc., etc.
