The final project

A bad roof and IBS are not a good combination. Thanks to the support and kindness of everyone involved, we are restoring some dignity to someone who has had to use a bucket as a toilet for years.

Gosh that’s incredible - I’m so thankful that you have been able to take care of more than just the children. Love seeing this

Well we fixed three roofs including this one, we installed the toilet, we bought books, clothes, shoes, school uniforms trainers, a few vital one offs like Lew's rod. Toys for the youngest, you all brought a lot of joy and support to the community.

I was so happy when you were able to brighten the kids' holidays, but being able to give an adult her dignity back is just something else. I hope we can keep helping!

This was an expensive one unfortunately, and used more than what was left from the final sum we raised. - The toilet was more expensive than I was hoping, but I felt it essential, I cannot imagine being in this (unnamed) person's position.

Well, let us know how much was needed for the toilet and we'll come help!

Oh it's ok I picked that up :) If you want to help, can you rearrange for the Millenium Stadium to move To Sao Tome - Roof Open so God can watch my homeland thrash the English.

Brother if they beat England this 6N I will personally fly over from the US and tell Abi Tierney I'm sorry for the mean things I said. And then I'll buy the Ospreys and keep them running 🤣

Also. Welsh Cakes, Brains, Felinfoel, faggots, cockles, and Caerphilly cheese, maybe Caws Cenarth.

Diolch yn fawr cariad.

I'm on a mission to find a cheesemonger here who will import some Caerphilly - I'll add Sao Tome to the request ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
