In the run-up to Christmas, here's an appeal from Anne Nicholls and the This Girl Can Period campaign.

bags of love at christmas

Every year we collect toiletries to add to food bags handed out at Christmas by local food bank charities and refuges.

This year, could you help with some everyday toiletries, and perhaps a little luxury to donate to someone in need for Christmas?

 

YES PLEASE

  • shower gel/soap
  • deodorant
  • period supplies
  • knickers
  • shampoo/conditioner
  • toothpaste and toothbrush

NO THANKS

  • razors, scissors or sharp objects
  • opened or used items
  • aerosols
  • medications

Want to know more? Phone Anne 0780 395 2180

anne nichols packing bags of supplies as part of the this girl can period campaignFor the past two years we have collected bags of toiletries for Cooking Champions and other food banks in Enfield.

Could you make up a bag of essential toiletries, plus a few little extras (if you can) to add to the food hampers and make Christmas just that little bit extra special?

If you can't make a full bag, maybe you have some unwanted Christmas/birthday presents or even just an individual item - everything is very welcome.

We make bags for women and girls and include reusable pads and don't forget items for men. Many, many men use the food banks too.

Thank you,

Your donations are always so much appreciated and give the person receiving your gifts a little bit of dignity.

I am happy to collect it in North London or you can drop it off to me.

Thank you,

Anne 🥰

While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.

Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.

For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.

Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions
