Volunteer day: Refugee Welcome Picnic, Manchester
We're short of hands for the Refugee Welcome Picnic; can you spare a morning?
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom386 views
Every year the Refugee Welcome Picnic brings together 279 neighbors in Manchester. I help organize it with 10 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for registration, sorting donations and carrying boxes. Shifts are four hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a long-standing tradition, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day.
If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you.
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you and your family, Jordan. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Cleveland
Wishing you peace. More neighborhoods should do this. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Kaduna

Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Heliopolis
Hope it all works out, Jordan. More neighborhoods should do this!
So sorry you're going through this, Jordan. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Palmira.

Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. After 19 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
