There are 58,000 refugees stranded in Greece currently waiting for asylum in Europe with more people arriving from conflict filled countries such as Syria and Afghanistan each week with no belongings. With no heating or adequate supplies, 38,000 of these men, women and children are living in camps and are unprepared for the cold winter.
We are currently running an appeal asking for donations of winter/hiking boots and warm winter clothing particularly warm coats in small and medium sizes for adults and teenage children. These can be used but must be in very good condition.
Alternatively we are accepting monetary donations so that we can buy these items and get them distributed to those in need in the camps as soon as possible. If you'd like to help, please call 0121 3801050 for more information or to make a donation and mention Greece - Refugee Winter Appeal.
