Donate a coat: Alexa is collecting for 74 families

I coordinate donations at Pioneer Women's Shelter in Nottingham. Every year around this time we hear from families who have nothing warm for their children, and this year demand has more than doubled. We're collecting clean, gently used or new coats, boots, hats, gloves and scarves in sizes kids' 3 to 5 and women's S-L. If you're in Nottingham, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Pioneer Women's Shelter on Tuesday between 9am and 2pm. If you're elsewhere, you may offer to sponsor a coat through a local shop - message in the comments and we can coordinate. Items go to families directly and the rest to the Pioneer Women's Shelter clothing bank, which is open to everyone. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
