Cork mum seeks hundreds of old black school shoes

The black shoes that Lenore has collected to-date, which she will bring to an orphanage next year.
"They have asked for used black school shoes, people have been picking up reduced pairs across shops at the moment who dont have shoes to donate in good condition, black colour only please as its part of their uniform for The kids are age 3 right up to 15 years old so sizes from UK 9 junior up to UK7 would be great for both boys and girls."
"A gentleman in the Cork area has very kindly agreed to charge me cost price to ship it over."
Lenore also asked people if they had any travel game too, that the kids might like.
"If you maybe have any travel size games of Connect 4, snakes and ladders, small jenga, cards etc something that is neat and compact that I could pack myself keep me in mind.
"I think classes could share these games in groups, keep in mind English is their second language so the games would need to be fun and straight forward for them to understand."
She thanked Lisa of Kool Kidz Korner in Carrigaline, as people have been dropping off stuff there.
Lenore has put January as a cut off date for collection of the items.
She added: "If you can keep in mind plastic bags are banned in Tanzania so if you are sending anything to me direct, it would be a massive help if you could remove any plastic packaging its just one less thing for me to do."
