I'm looking for any info you guys might have on clothing drives, homeless shelters, food banks anything at all really that can either help support people made homeless or impoverished by this illegitimate bastard government or ways that folks can support said organisations (even welfare advice and so on). The plan is to pool as many resources as I can and put them up on this website where said info can easily be found and shared and maybe save a few lives this winter.
I know there is a winter clothing drive in Newcastle (likely ones in other areas too, see if you can find one local to you and let me know) so over the weekend see if you have any spare jackets, gloves, hats etc that you could donate. More than 80,000 CHILDREN will be homeless in the UK this Xmas and of course many many more adults, let's do all we can to help them. Fighting the Tories isn't just about going on marches and signing petitions, it's about caring for those who fall victim to them too. Fx
