TEECH were recently donated some medical supplies including a large quantity of Calpol from a hospital in Ipswich, unfortunately the medicine had past its used by date which meant we were unable to take it with us.

By chance one of our supporters mentioned that Monkey World in Dorset accept out of date medicine for their animals. The Calpol was promptly shipped to them and we have received a thank you from 'Sally and the boys'!

'Monkey World assists governments around the world to stop smuggling of primates from the wild'

---- A Massive Thank you from TEECH  ----

TEECH would like to save a huge festive thank you to all those that contributed to our shoe box appeal, we collected over 400 boxes which was truly amazing!

Saturday 18 December
Arrive at Thorndon – the storage facility for TEECH. We load the TEECH van with approximately 200 shoeboxes, food parcels, bags of warm clothing, bedding and equipment for the van (rock salt, snow chains and a shovel!) – several volunteers kindly give up their last Saturday before Christmas to help us load up.

Sunday 19 December
We collect a further 130 shoeboxes and other donations of clothing and sweets – and somehow manage to squeeze them into the van, along with our own personal belongings for the trip

Misson to Moldova (extract taken from article in CSD Exchange newsletter July 2010)

Between 13 and 28 August 2010, Tony Minter will travel with fellow volunteers from TEECH to Moldova where they will help install running water in a summer camp for orphans and deliver much needed aid.

Although Tony and his wife, Gail, have always found time to help charitable causes this is a big undertaking and a totally new experience for Tony. His family, though are right behind him with his parents business (Conkers of Felixstowe) co-funding the sponsorship alongside a contribution from CSD. 

Tony knows it won’t be easy – it takes 3 days to travel to Moldova by minibus with volunteers sleeping on the minibus to save costs and when they arrive, accommodation for the duration of their stay will be basic, but from what others have told him it is a life changing experience.
