Thread Ahead

Hey Twitter! Long time, no see! Here's a look at what we've been up to over the past year... Stay tuned for details of our next pop-up, which will take place late next month!

Packing is underway for our next event! 👀❄️

Spread the word 📣 Only 3 days till our next pop-up, where we’ll be distributing essential winter items! 🧢🧦🧤

Information for our upcoming winter essentials pop-up! As temperatures drop to very low levels this week, please do share with anyone you know who may benefit. 💞

Thank you so much to everyone who shared & donated! 💞 Stay tuned for information tomorrow on how we’ll be distributing the packs, each of which contains fleece gloves, a fleece-lined thermal hat, & three pairs of thermal socks! 🧢🧤🧦

We try to create a service which feels dignified and leaves our visitors feeling good, beyond meeting practical needs alone. Currently, we work with @LucyandYak , @tattydevine , @EDWINeurope , Alzang, Jujuni Kids, and more! Here are some pics from our last event!

Please keep sharing and donating so that we can offer solidarity and warmth to all our visitors who need it this winter! 💓

At our last pop-up event, we provided 100 visitors with clothing items, and we anticipate that at least as many will be requiring gloves, socks and hats this winter. To cope with demand, we need to raise at least another £829. 🧤🧦🧣

Thank you so much to everyone who’s already donated to our winter essentials drive! We’ve been truly moved by the generous support of our followers. 🥰However, we still need your help...

Could you buy one or more of the items pictured above via the link in our bio? All donations from today will go directly on buying these essential items. 💞 please also retweet + share!

In response to the needs voiced by our visitors, we are putting together packs of essential winter items, containing thermal gloves, hats and socks, which they will be able to collect from an outdoor collection point in early February.

We’re nearly halfway to our goal! Please consider retweeting and donating if you can, so that we can cover travel costs for our visitors who cannot afford the fares 💞

📣 We need your help! 📣 When we ran our first event last month, the overwhelming feedback we received from our visitors was that the biggest barrier they faced in accessing our services was travel costs. //THREAD//

Introducing one of the lovely organisations we have supporting our first pop-up this weekend - London Community Foundation !

Last one! We wanted to finish our week of facts with some information on the particular challenges faced by women and non-binary people seeking asylum.
