Walsall & District Branch | ||
| Special events We like to get out and about. Last year we had collections in pubs and at Walsall FC, a market stall, our '24:7' fancy dress netball and a display at the New Art Gallery, Walsall and are hoping to do more this year. For us its an opportunity to raise some funds, publicise our service but above all to meet people. Look out for us - if you see us, come and say hello. You'll be welcome! Mickey Mouse, Homer Simpson, Superman...smart cars and carnivals...what do they have in common? They've all had a part to play in Walsall Samaritans' events in 2008.
