THE popular Samaritans Purse Shoe Box Appeal is back this year, organised by Jen Murray and local estate agent Dart and Partners.

Jen Murray has been organising the appeal for two years now, receiving around 200 boxes each time.

Jen said: ‘Dart and Partners Teignmouth office will be a collection point for the Shoe Box Appeal 2022.

This appeal is so important as it means gifts can reach children in the poorest corners of the world who have very little.

Dart and Partners added: ‘This is a particually important year due to the unpresedented time we have all expirienced over the last few years. A small shoe box can bring a huge amount of joy.’

The cut off date for donations is November 14.
