Wheelchairs in all conditions are urgently being sought by a charity to help disabled people in Romania.

Jubilee Outreach Yorkshire (JOY), which has a warehouse in Windhill, Shipley, and shops in Shipley and Bingley, is desperate to send out wheelchair.

The organisation also is appealing for covers for around 400 mattresses which have been donated.

The charity was set up nearly 20 years ago and funds health care and children's projects in Romania.

The organisation also helps other countries in crisis, including Sierra Leone in Africa.

It also sends out regular cargoes of supplies of medical aid, clothing and other essential goods to stricken communities.

Director of Joy, Dr Kathy Tedd, said: "We have already send out around 6,000 wheelchairs to disabled people out there.

"For anyone who has any spare, whatever the condition, we would urge them to come forward."

Anyone who can offer any help to the organisation should call Dr Tedd on (01274) 531999.
