Road to Calais

Donation protected
Over the summer numbers of refugees have once again climbed in Northern France, and there are now between 2-3000 thousand people sleeping rough on the streets of Calais, Dunkirk, Paris and Brussels.  

Conditions are worse than ever, with no shelter from the elements, no proper access to sanitation, no reliable food supply and police aggressively and continuously moving people on so that a full nights sleep is rare and possessions are always at risk.

Care4Calais is, as always, working to help the people living under these terrible pressures; providing clean clothes and underwear to those who might not have changed their clothes in weeks - which leads to all kinds of infections, skin diseases and other health hazards; providing dry socks and waterproof walking boots to combat foot infections and foot rot; making up food packs with dried fruit and nuts, cereal bars and fruit juice to provide healthy, easy to carry snacks for when food can't be found; distributing warm winter coats that keep people dry even when the police confiscate sleeping bags.

To ensure we can continue this important and necessary work please donate as little or as much as possible. Every penny counts and brings those in turmoil a little closer to comfort and safety.
