🧤Appeal for Gloves to Support Rough Sleepers 🧤

As the colder nights set in, The Foxton Day Centre in Preston have completely run out of adult-size gloves for people sleeping rough. Gloves are one of the most requested items at this time of year, and right now they have none left to give out.

If you’re able to donate adult gloves, it would make a real difference to someone facing the winter without warmth.
