The idea of the event is three pronged. There's an S (student), a V (volunteering) and a W (week). CCCU, UKC (University of Kent) and Canterbury College will be teaming up for this event.
S = Soup - There will be two groups involved in this element of the event. One group will be based in Canterbury town centre, and they will be handing out soup to the members of the public for a small donation (Donations will be going to Catching Lives). Another group will be handing out soup to the homeless in Canterbury.
W = Woolies - We are hoping to collect lots of scarves, hats and gloves to hand out to the homeless when we are giving them soup. It is so cold here, and hopefully we can make a difference even if its just really small! If you are local to Canterbury, and have any old woolies you would like to donate (or even if you are't local and you are willing to send them!) please do email me; suitcaseandsandals@outlook.com.
We are also looking for reliable volunteers in Canterbury, so if you are on the off chance a student at CCCU and wanting to get involved, please email me for more information.
What have you been involved with recently at University?
