Wrap Up London 2013

It's that time of year again, and as winter approaches, Hands on London are running the 3rd Wrap up London coat collection campaign. Last year was a great success but this year promises to be bigger and better than both previous campaigns.  

Last year, building on the success of the inaugural campaign in 2011, Hands on London collected and distributed 8,520 coats to 68 different shelters and refuges, to keep London's most vulnerable warm during winter. This year the targets and reach of the campaign have grown. 

This year Hands On London are aiming to distribute over 10,000 coats to over 100 charitable organisations across Greater London.

They will be distributing to a wide range of organisations in London including homeless shelters, women's refuges, youth centres, refugee support groups, care homes, centres for the elderly, and food banks.  

This year StreetSmart is proud to be amongst the sponsors and hopes that as many people as possible will take part to keep those vulnerable warm this christmas.
