The Catholic Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle organises hygiene packs to be distributed at the event and is calling for donations of toiletries and hygiene items. Smaller-sized portions of shampoo and conditioner are preferred and will be divided into packs by diocesan staff for those in need.
Items can be dropped into the collection box at the Catholic Schools Office reception, 841 Hunter Street, Newcastle West, by Friday 29 July 2016.
