SIR: Through your newspaper could I make the following appeal.

We are a local junior football club in desperate need of a secure steel container to store our equipment in. We have no funds to buy or hire one and are looking for a good samaritan who could provide one for us.

If anyone would like to help please contact me on 01204 386568.

G O'Brien,

Chairman Astley Bridge FC,

Lakeland Grove,

Bolton.
