Leading London conference and events venue, The QEII Centre, has gathered 900 coats for the winter volunteering campaign Wrap Up London, a huge increase on last year’s collection of 100 coats.
From the 5th to 22nd November, the centre welcomed contributions of unwanted coats from event organisers, delegates, employees, local businesses and members of the public. These donations will be distributed by the charity HandsOn London to those in need, such as the homeless, elderly and refugees.
This is the seventh consecutive year that the Westminster based venue has supported the charitable campaign. One of the largest winter volunteering drives in the capital, Wrap Up London collects pre-loved coats from over 40 drop off locations across the city and Greater London and distributes them to over 75 front line charities.
