Story

A few times a month, we volunteer for the Separated Child Foundation, helping to prepare Arrival Packs for young refugees who have been separated from their families.  They arrive alone, leaving behind a life we can hardly begin to imagine. Many of these young teenagers are from war torn countries such as Syria, Eritrea and Afghanistan.

We love that in a tiny way we can provide these young people with a little bit of comfort and dignity - brand new clothes and toiletries - some of the absolute basics which we take for granted. 100% of your donation will go directly to purchasing the supplies we need for these Arrival Packs.

On top of that, we have a lot of fun working with this charity and have met some amazing people who give so much of their time to helping others.

 

About the charity

The Separated Child Foundation helps young refugees in the UK who have become separated from their parents and close family. We offer emotional, social and practical support to separated children and engage in educational activities to raise broader awareness of their needs.
