Cold weather kills thousands of people across the world each year. There is an immediate concern that hundreds of people will lose their life if the cold snap continues without intervention. The risk of cold related illnesses like frostbite and hypothermia is high in the poor, elderly and young.

Thousands of people are in immediate and urgent need of blankets and winter clothing to save their lives and relieve their suffering. Each night that goes by presents a serious risk of loss of life due to extreme cold.

BeeHive has developed an emergency appeal so that we can distribute blankets to the most vulnerable people in Bangladesh.

Each blanket will cost £3:30 each. If we can get 300 blankets, will get for £2.55 each.

On the 20th Dec, BeeHive will be in Piccadilly gardens giving out a hot meal and warm clothing to the homeless. Any donations of old coats, blankets, hats, scarves and gloves would be greatfully received. Please send an email to thebeehivetrust@gmail.com if you are able to help.
