British Red Cross refugee services in Bristol are asking for donations to help provide for destitute refugees and asylum seekers over the winter months

The service is based in Easton and provides individualised support with applications for asylum, help finding family and friends still abroad and practical items like food parcels, clothes, help with transport costs and personal hygiene items

In winter there is an urgent need for warm winter clothes, as well as tents and sleeping bags for those facing homelessness.

Due to the Coronavirus pandemic and current lockdown restrictions we are not currently able to accept individual donations of physical items.

Donations will go to support our Bristol Refugee Services, through the purchase of essential winter items to support refugees facing destitution and at risk of homelessness.

This page is managed by British Red Cross senior community fundraiser Jess Burden. If you have questions, or wish to discuss supporting in a different way please email jessicaburden@redcross.org.uk.

Thank you for your support
