We have lived in Peterborough for 12 years. We will be moving later this year out-of-state. We have many excellent condition stuffed animals. I offered them to the P'Boro Fire Department to comfort families displaced by fire. They said they generally don't use them, but suggested that you may have an interest. Please let me know if you could use any stuffed animals, and, if so, how many you would like. We have an abundance which we don't want to take with us when we move.

I am currently in a rehabilitation centre in Oxford (Banbury Lodge) recovering from a severe relapse with drugs and alcohol - through which I have suffered with for the past 4 years. I am 32 and looking to get accommodation in a safe supportive environment where I can focus on gaining employment, learning to live without substances.
