University donations bring a little Christmas cheer

15 December 2011

 

海角直播 staff and students have shown their generosity by collecting for two festive appeals.

A huge range of food, toiletries, clothing and children鈥檚 essentials have been donated to Nightstop 海角直播 and the Mary Thompson Foundation. Nightstop 海角直播 provides accommodation and support for young homeless people aged between 16 and 25.

The Mary Thompson Foundation supports people who are in the UK legally, but are not allowed to work and can鈥檛 be returned to their home country for legal reasons.

Jayne Villiers, 海角直播鈥檚 Volunteer Co-ordinator, said: 'This is the sixth year we have run our Christmas appeal and yet again we are delighted with the response from staff and students at the University.

'Nightstop 海角直播 and the Mary Thompson Foundation do fantastic work and I am pleased that we have been able to help them in some way.'

Jane Cavana, Manager at Nightstop 海角直播, said: 'We are delighted with the donations. It means that every single young person that stays with us receives a bag of toiletries. It may not sound like a lot, but it is a huge help. Donations like this save us around 拢3,000 a year, which for a small charity like Nightstop means a great deal.'

Alison Butters, Nightstop 海角直播鈥檚 Volunteer Co-ordinator, added: 'We are exceptionally grateful and it is extremely heart-warming to see this level of donations from staff and students at 海角直播.'
