Note: the winter clothing packages aren’t available yet, as we’re making them up with extra donations. Read on to find out how you can donate clothing.
We’ve received funding from Southwark Council’s Warm Spaces grant to support LGBTQ+ people this winter.
As part of this grant, we’re making 30 free winter clothing packages for folks to collect at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre.
The packages will include essential warm items including a hat, scarf, gloves and socks.
How to donate clothes
We are looking for either second hand or new hats, scarves and gloves to complete our winter clothing packages. If you have any of these items to donate, pop into the Centre!

- Wed: 11am-6pm
