Become a collection point
We are always on the lookout for kind people and/or organisations who are able to host a collection point for donations of aid for Care4Calais. We have a number of these already dotted around the UK but we urgently need more! Would you be able to help?

What happens then?
Once you have a reasonable amount of donations you have a choice. You can either
- Bring them to Calais – we would love to see you!
- Take them to one of our Hubs, in Stockport, Stebbing and Dover
- Click here to get in touch and we will arrange a collection from you
Once you get into the swing of it you have another choice. If you are happy to just take in the donations we send to you that’s fabulous – and we will always be very grateful. But if you want to take things further, you can. Maybe start advertising your involvement locally, try to drum up some local support. Start a local refugee friends group on Facebook, or run a collection at your workplace, school or club. We can send you flyers or posters, give you some tips, just let us know!
