Last year we set out to collect 2500 hygiene product to donate to community centres, schools and food banks, and thanks to all your support we smashed that target!
We were able to collect 3000 products which helped families throughout the Christmas period, and far into the New year.
So this year we are back again, launching PRACTICAL PRESNETS FESTIVE DRIVE for 2024. This year we want to collect 4000 hygiene products to once again help people in our communities.
What is Hygiene Poverty?
It can be shocking to learn in this day and age that many young adults, children and vulnerable people are unable to afford basic hygiene products.
This type of poverty can be embarrassing, not only to address, but for the person living this way. It can also affect physical health, mental health, confidence and lead to social isolation or bullying.
We're not hiding from this issue, and just like our emergency medical transport work, we are committed to making a difference and tackling this head-on.
Let's do this together.
How can you get involved?
