The Sisters of Charity in Tarxien have issued an appeal for help after a fire destroyed sections of the upper part of their convent.

The blaze destroyed equipment used for seminars and training as well as furniture in a conference hall. The hall is used by many associations and support groups free of charge.

"It really needs to be redone as soon as possible, so that the services can start again without much delay," the nuns said.

Donations can be made directly at Sisters of Charity, 152 Sisters Street, Tarxien; at Bank of Valletta, account name Sisters of Charity - IBAN MT07VALL22013000000040017426323 and at HSBC account name Sisters of Charity – IBAN MT72MMEB44130000000013075510051.
