It was great to be back @bigyellowss last week with our old friends from @Cisco

Many hands made light work of putting together 162 essentials packs and dozens of sleep packs for separated children.

A huge shout out @Cisco for their generous employee volunteering programme. 🧡

Throwback to 3 weeks ago when we welcomed this fab team from @BellIntegration to our packing base @bigyellowss

The crew prepped and packed dozens of packs for separated children as a way of offering them comfort and dignity. 🧡

Thanks @beonhand for the intro!

Huge thanks to the team from TCC Foundation for prepping and packing 320 essentials packs for separated children arriving in Dover.

Each bag will offer comfort, dignity and hope to a child when they need it the most.

The washbags will be finished during Refugee Week at the school's annual exhibition. This year's theme is 'We The People', exploring identity, human rights and the triumph of the human spirit.

We're delighted to have the opportunity to work with these amazing young volunteers.
