Grenfell Towers Relief campaign
- Sumi Olson (14th Jun 2017 - 10:55:11)
Locals! I'm organising a relief campaign for the grenfell towers residents. Speed is of the essence. Can you help with following:
Donations - toiletries, clothes, children's toys, books & games, bedding, practical items
Collection points - do you have space where people could drop off donations? I have limited room at the moment.
Transport - can you provide cars, vans, drivers for next Wednesday 20th june. Leave after rush hour/morning school run.
I've spoken to the people at the Harrow club which was being used as an evacuee centre. Residents have now been moved to the nearby rugby club. However, the Harrow Club is accepting donations and will distribute them.

This is a fabulous idea. Regrettably I don't have space for donations but I can certainly add to it when a drop of place can be organised. Well done Sumi

Thanks for kicking this off.
We are gathering useful stuff to help.
When is pick-up/delivery day as next Wednesday is the 21st not the 20th?
I've got a Volvo estate car so could take a load myself.
Please help,if you can.

All the latest I've read says please hold off more donations as they are currently overwhelmed.

Apologies for the delay in replying - lots going on. All the latest news about this is on our facebook page which explains what we are asking for and for whom. We are giving to the harrow club which is a local and established community centre. We are gking on wed 21st june. Drivers welcome.
We are having to suspend collection until further notice as we've run out of space. If anyone could offer space until Tuesday night that would be great. Donation deadline would have been tomorrow night.
Please message our facebook page if you can help.
Thank you for kind words of support.
