Helpers Needed<br />

A Winstanley-based charity shop is looking for volunteers.<br />

The DEBRA shop on Winstanley Precinct helps fund<br />

research into Epidermolysis Bullosa, a group of painful<br />

genetic skin conditions that cause the skin to tear and<br />

blister at the slightest touch. People with EB have a faulty<br />

gene, which means the skin cannot bind together, so any<br />

trauma or friction can cause painful blisters.<br />

Volunteers are expected to sort through donations, stock<br />

shelves and serve customers. The shop opens from 9am-<br />

4.30pm six days a week, but any time you can donate<br />

would be appreciated. For more information, call 01942<br />

211278 or just call in and speak to Sharon or Colin.<br />

Sling Library<br />

If you have a new baby and you want help with how to<br />

wear a sling, or to hire one, pop down to Pipsqueaks Play<br />

Café in Orrell on Tuesday August 31 and get help from The<br />

Orrell Sling Library.<br />

Staff from the Warrington, <strong>Wigan</strong> and St Helens Sling<br />

Library will be at the playcentre from 10am-12pm with<br />

more than 200 slings and carriers to choose from. Booking<br />

is free for the general appointment slots but essential to<br />

ensure that they keep within occupancy figures.<br />

Booking closes 24 hours before the session, so to secure<br />

your place please go online at https://wawishlibrary.<br />
