She said almost every week there is a race, “we get so many shirts till we do not know what to do with them.
“This year, we asked members to bring them in. Durban West Tourism supplied us with linen,” said Phillips.
The older members of the club sewed baby blankets using the running T-shirts, batting and the linen for two charities; Baby Hope and Holah.
