Residents of a refugee camp in Ouistreham and the squats in Caen rely heavily on aid for everyday items such as toilet paper.

Buy a backpack for a refugee and help them to keep their belongings safe whilst on the move.

Many refugees arrive with just the clothes on their back. Whilst our partner charities are busy distributing aid items bought by you in our shop, many of these people are on the move and need somewhere to store their new belongings. Having a backpack allows families to store and carry all-important food supplies, baby items, hygiene products and clean/spare clothes whilst on the road.

Some 1500 refugees are estimated to be sleeping rough or in camps in the woods of Calais and Dunkirk, including around 200 unaccompanied children. Even then, the police regularly confiscate and destroy their tents and tarpaulins. Tents are always needed to provide refugees with a safer, dry, warm place to sleep at night.
