Story
Help keep everyone warm this winter!
Homelessness is a big problem and is growing fast, according to DCLG - Department for Communities and Local Government, a total of 4,134 people were counted to be sleeping rough in England on any one night in autumn 2016.
In 2016, Connect Group and its brands – Smiths News, Pass My Parcel and Jack’s beans launched its first ‘Pass It On’ Christmas campaign, encouraging people to donate clothing to help homeless and vulnerable people.
People generously donated and they didn’t stop giving…
To continue this great work we have decided to turn our campaign into a yearlong project, launching on 16th October 2017, but now with your help.
