Thank you so very much for your support, donating and running or helping a Wrap Up in your area, together we have again helped many people and saved many coats being needlessly put to landfill.

If you have missed our collection this year we ask that you find a local charity to donate them to.

Since 2018 Rotary clubs in East Lancashire have been bringing winter warmth and comfort to people in crisis in our communities.

In 2020 a partnership agreement was signed by Rotary Great Britain & Ireland and Hands on London to expand the action nationally.

Our aim is to collect coats which will keep recipients warm and dry in the long winter months.

We will work closely with local charities who are best placed to get the coats to those most in need. Local need will be met first and then those in need elsewhere in the county.

Victims of domestic violence, the homeless, families in crisis and many others need our help.

In order to achieve this, we need your help to collect clean warm coats, suitable for male & female adults, young adults and children. Please make sure there are no holes or tears in them and that the zips and buttons are intact.

These coats can be dropped off at one of the collection points listed on our website.

Our last collection led to 2,300 items being shared with the help of 18 charities in East Lancashire.

The need is there . . . Help us to help East Lancashire Wrap Up this winter.

Our Wrap Up Has now ended – thank you all for your continued efforts and support.

Anyone who would like to contact Wrap Up East Lancashire to either help with the collection or offer an additional charity to distribute the clothing can get in touch by emailing us at eastlancashire@wrapupuk.org
