Pungent smell in Sockburn area

Mohan Neighbourly Lead from Sockburn

Hi lovely neighbours, I noticed a heavy pungent gas smell around 1am this morning which forced me to close all my windows and fans due to breathing difficulty. It was felt like die-hard industrial chemical released in the dark hours of the holiday season. It was stayed reasonably long time like more than an hour. or even more I suppose. Let's investigate from the industrial point of view.

Baby knitting

Lesley from Bishopdale

At night while watching TV I knit baby cardys, bootees, beanies and have a couple of bags that I would like to donate to a worthy cause. It is all wool and would range from newborn to about 6mths old.
Would anyone have any suggestions for a place that would appreciate it.
