I coordinate donations at Union Refugee Centre in Newcastle. 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 toddler through teen. If you're in Newcastle, we can arrange a pick-up or you can drop things at Union Refugee Centre on Sunday between 11am and 4pm. 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 Union Refugee Centre clothing bank, which is open to everyone. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

          Wishing you peace, Rowan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Ikeja donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
