Help Us Warm Hearts This Winter
As winter tightens its grip and the cost-of-living crisis continues, homelessness in the UK is reaching critical levels. Across the country, we’re seeing a staggering 20% rise in individuals seeking support at outreach services. Many are forced to sleep rough, sofa surf, or find shelter in cars, garages, or sheds—struggling to survive amidst the bitter cold.
At Hand on Heart, we are dedicated to bringing comfort and dignity to those who need it most. Each year, our Winter Warmer Pack Campaign provides essential items to hundreds of individuals facing homelessness. This February, we are preparing once again to distribute vital supplies in over 15 locations across the UK, offering warmth and hope during the harshest months.
What We Provide
Every Winter Warmer Pack contains carefully selected items designed to protect against the cold and provide basic necessities:
- Joggers
- Thermal tops and bottoms
- Thermal socks
- Underwear
- Winter gloves
- Woolly hats
- Deodorants
- Wet wipes
- First-aid plasters
- Toothbrushes and toothpaste
In addition to pre-assembled packs, our pick-and-mix stations allow guests to select additional items like toiletries and clothing, ensuring their specific needs are met.
How You Can Help
We need your support to make this campaign a success! Here’s how you can get involved:
- Volunteer with us: Join our assembly sessions in Harefield to pack drawstring bags or prepare pick-and-mix crates. Families, schools, universities, and corporate teams are all welcome!
- Donate: Every contribution helps us provide essential items to those in need.
-
Spread the word: Share our mission with your community, workplace, or school.
What we need?
Donations: To provide 1000 packs with clean clothes and toiletries to the homeless in a safe manner.
£20 will go towards one pack. £60 could help 3 rough sleepers, asylum seekers and refugees to have access to clean clothes & hygiene items.
