JOANNA WIGGINS, the 19-year-old who gave birth to triplets last year, is appealing for assistance to build a bedroom at her family home for her and the three boys.

The young mother is asking for construction material to do the job.

Last December the charity group Sidewalk Santa raised $2 700 to assist Wiggins with this venture, but the young woman who resides at Eastbourne, St Philip, has been unable to make a start because more funds are needed.

Gina-Lee de Suze, of Sidewalk Santa, explained that her group had been holding on to the money since December after another charity promised to help. . .
