I’m writing this on a bright, beautiful evening – It it now September and the start of my favourite season – Autumn.
I love the bright sun and the cool, crisp evenings. Things don’t stay that way unfortunately, and the transition to Winter can be all too brief. With that comes mild discomfort for some (scraping ice off the car window) and bitter conditions for others – the people sleeping rough in Watford.
I’ve put together a brief list for this newsletter – please do
visit Watford Homeless Warriors Ltd Facebook Page for
more up to date posts on specifics:
- Sleeping bags
- Tents
- Duvets
- Hats
- Boxer shorts
- Ladies underwear – range of sizes
- Socks
- T shirts/Sweatshirts/Hoodies/Jumpers – general warm clothing
- Trainers – mens and women’s – various sizes
- Leggings – even worn if in good condition and washed
- General camping equipment
- Wetwipes/toiletries/washbags.
Nice things! Holiday size moisturiser/handwash/foundation
samples etc. Living on the street doesn’t stop you from wanting to smell
nice/look nice!!
