Wrap up is back!

Wrap Up is a campaign run by Lancaster Loyne Rotary, in partnership with the registered charity Hands On London.

Thick warm winter coats donated to Wrap Up are collected by volunteers and each garment is inspected to ensure it is clean and in a good condition to be given away.

Our motto of “Is this coat good enough for you to wear” ensures that only good quality coats are distributed to the charitable organisations. The collected coats are distributed via homeless shelters, refugee centres, organisations supporting the elderly, women’s refuges, children’s centres and other charities helping people in crisis.

We do not give coats direct to families, because we firmly believe that the charitable organisations can identify support and resources to benefit those in need or signpost them to organisations that could help, thereby creating a lasting relationship between those in need and the organisation that could transform their lives.

We are wrapping up safely too by working hard to make sure everything about Wrap Up is completely COVID-19 safe.

So, if you have a thick warm winter coat you no longer need, please donate it to our Wrap Up campaign, collection boxes are placed in Lancaster, Morecambe and Carnforth.

Anyone who would like to contact us to either help with the collection or offer an additional charity to distribute the clothing can get in touch by emailing:
