Help the refugees in Paris // Aider les réfugiés à paris Paris

One of the most famous destinations in the world - Paris - is rapidly becoming home to hundreds of desperate refugees.

At the moment there are about 800 people; including young women, families with babies and unaccompanied children who are living rough on the streets.

There are no official aid organisations on-the-ground, so all aid comes from a handful of independent volunteers. We have very limited storage space and are running a bare-bones operation so can only provide the very basics.

Please donate to help us provide the following:

• tents (pop-up tents, double skinned)
• sleeping bags (3-4 seasons preferable)
• blankets
• warm clothing; jumpers, scarfs, hats, gloves
• waterproof winter coats

As the scale of war and disaster in the Middle East and Northern Africa continues to grow and the larger camps across France are being threatened with closure, we anticipate that many more people will be heading to Paris.

If you can help with any of the following - legal advice, storage facilities, hot meals or material supplies - please contact Craig at [email protected].

We appreciate any support - big or small - that you can give.

Many Thanks
