We’re proud to share the success of our recent collection campaign in support of The Connection at St Martin’s, our charity partner that provides vital services to people experiencing homelessness in London.
Earlier this summer, The Connection reached out with an urgent appeal for essential items to help those who turn to them for support. Many of their clients have very few personal belongings, so this campaign focused on collecting unisex items that could make a practical and immediate difference.
A community effort
Our colleagues came together to donate new and gently used items, from clothing and footwear to toiletries and towels. Thanks to everyone’s generosity, we gathered a wide range of essentials, including:
- Sunscreen and moisturiser
- Towels and dressing gowns
- Socks, T-shirts, and jogging bottoms
- Winter jackets and footwear
- New underwear
All donations were carefully collected, sorted, and delivered directly to The Connection, where they’re now helping people in need.
Making a real difference
The Connection’s work goes far beyond providing immediate help – they offer advice, support, and long-term assistance to help people rebuild their lives. By responding to this appeal, our community has played a small but meaningful part in that journey.
We’d like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who contributed to this campaign. Your kindness and generosity have helped provide comfort and dignity to people experiencing homelessness.

Together, we’ve shown what’s possible when we come together to support a shared cause, and we’re proud to continue supporting The Connection in their life-changing work.
