A big thank you to everyone who has pledged. I spent 2 days in Calais this week and I have much clearer views on what is needed and I can say I will make sure every penny is spent on things that are most needed. We shall be re-opening a new fundraising for ongoing donations as this will be a long term thing in Calais so all your support is appreciated, please check out East Kent facebook group and event for further updates when this goes live and help spread the word. There is so much that is needed so we can do with as much support from all friends, family, colleagues, social groups. Again thank you so much to everyone you have shown great support and compassion in a time of need, now lets push our next one further and start putting what was raised to much needed use!! Thank you!!!!!!

A big massive thank you to everyone who has pledged. You are truly amazing and I could not have expected such generosity. All money raised will go to buying the most needed things that agencies are in demand off so be assured funds raised will go to a very much needed cause

I'd like to just say wow. I never expected such generosity and compassion from so many people. You guys give me great admiration so please accept all my gratitude. I can't stress enough that 100% of what we raise will go directly to buying food/resources/supplies

A massive thank you to everyone who has pledged. We have reached our goal but let's not stop there. The more people who donate the more we are able to buy to provide much needed tents/sleeping bags/waterproofs and more. You have all shown compassion and solidarity so thank you
