The North Middlesex Hospital is again appealing for people to make and donate washbags for NHS staff uniforms.

colourful wash bags for NHS staff uniforms

Our hard-working staff and volunteers are continuing to work their socks off, and we're looking for some nimble-fingered donations of drawstring uniform bags, so that colleages can easily pop their used scrubs and tunics in the wash as soon as they get home.

What we need

  • We need bags which are made of cotton, washable at 60 degrees, and at least 50cm x 55cm (18" x 20" if you grew up before metric!).
  • An old cotton pillow case is ideal, or two 'fat quarters' if you're raiding your fabric stash!
  • Any pattern or colour as long as it doesn't run in the wash.
  • A drawstring or ribbon enclosure at one end.

You can find instructions at a number of online craft sites, including here, and lots of video tutorials

Please email us if you need any more information, or to arrange handover, and please accept our most grateful thanks for your time, skills and kindness.

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
