ShelterBox is sending an assessment team to Thailand following the powerful earthquake that struck Myanmar on 28 March, causing widespread destruction.
Thre are enormous levels of destruction across both Thailand and Myanmar. Buildings have collapsed, many people are missing or feared dead, and families are left homeless or living in dangerous conditions.
Shelterbox has appealed for donations to provide crucial aid for the people effected, something that will be supported by our Club. Those attending our concert by the Dorset Police and Taunton Deane Male Voice Choirs on 5 April will be given the opportunity to donate to the cause. Whatever is given will be added to by our Club to help the unfortunate victims of this terrible disaster.
