Trini was the hero of the day – coming to help with the shopping then packing the bags and finally distributing the food in Rang Moo. From 10 am to 6 pm – a full day of work!!
When Sister Cecilia came to visit last fortnight she suggested that we stop providing canned sardines and switch to dried pork that is easy to add to any meal and provides a more healthy protein to seniors’ diets.
