Derby County Community Trust are pleased to be accepting donations of 'winter warmers' to support residents within the city.

Many families, including refugees and asylum seekers, arrive to Derby with very little, and as the cold weather sets in the need for warm clothing increases.

We are specifically looking to accept warm coats and everyday shoes (trainers or boots etc - not smart shoes or heels) for all ages, which will be distributed through charity networks in the city.

Second-hand clothes should be in good condition and ready to be worn again. We unfortunately can't accept duvets, covers, or headwear which has been used.

Donations can be made at Harrison's Hub in the Community Corner on Monday 19th December from 11am-6pm.
