medusa   16 #1 Posted November 1, 2014 Did you know about Gloria Stewart and her quest to bring a little Christmas cheer to the lonely people of South Yorkshire?  Every year since 2008 Gloria has put on a free lunch, with wine and a Christmas present each, for as many of the lonely people of South Yorkshire as she can find. Last year that meant finding funds to pay for over 400 Christmas presents and Christmas lunches.  Could you donate to help Gloria out? How about volunteering to serve, help in the kitchen, pour wine for people?  Gloria's phone number is 0114 2570460. I'm sure she'd love to hear from you if you have time or resources to give, however small.  https://www.facebook.com/881250745219548/photos/a.881254511885838.1073741825.881250745219548/881254518552504/?type=1&relevant_count=1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
