Old tapes wanted

My wife and I have for many years been involved in the wellbeing of a severely handicapped young Jewish woman living in a state institution near Minsk, Belarus. While the institution does what it can to provide for those in its care, it is, inevitably, short of resources, especially those required to provide satisfying work and recreation.

On a recent visit, we were asked if we could acquire a quantity of used video tapes; as many as we could lay our hands on. The actual internal tape is used to weave floor and table mats, teapot cosies and a wide range of decorative items. The standard of work is amazingly high. If any of your readers have in their possession unwanted tapes, I should be obliged if they would email me on: michaellazarus@btinternet.com. Michael Lazarus Herts EN6
