Care4Calais - Clothing for asylum seekers and refugees
Care4Calais is a volunteer run charity delivering essential aid and support to refugees living in the UK, Northern France and Belgium. We believe in a fair and tolerant British society and advocate for a welcoming and inclusive attitude towards refugees.
Operating year round, our focus is to provide warm clothing, bedding, food and medical assistance to people in desperate need. We also provide social support and interaction, including language lessons and sports and music workshops.
Please note that this community mission has been cancelled.
Care4Calais work to ensure that refugees have appropriate clothes to live in the UK, giving them back their dignity and allowing them to engage with services in the community without feeling ashamed by their appearance.
โ What is the Task?
We'll be:
- Recording donations
- Sorting through clothing
- Preparing clothing packs for refugees and asylum seekers
Nothing will be wasted. Clothes that aren't suitable for refugees will be donated to other partner charities.
๐ Where?

- Exact location will be sent to volunteers before the task
๐งค Anything Else I Need to Know?
- Disposable gloves are provided to handle donations if wanted
- Boxes of clothing may need to be lifted up/down stairs. If you're not comfortable with this, ask others to take over

We're not needed to help Care4Calais this week as they've had fewer requests recently and more volunteering than usual since our last visit.
Sorry for cancelling and I hope I'll see you at another GoodGym session soon.
