The Runnymede on Thames announced as new supporter
The Runnymede on Thames Hotel part of the Warner Hotel has joined forces with the Extra Duvet Charity to supply the charity with hundreds of duvets this winter.
the challenge
The mounting cost-of-living crisis is leaving many people with making the choice between paying their rent or a crucial utility bill and for them they are having to confront the terrifying reality of no longer being able to afford their home. At Warmth, we are on a mission to keep these individuals warm throughout the winter by equipping them with quality duvets.
Through my regular visits with donations to the foodbanks across Surrey I realised how so many people will suffer during these challenging economic times ahead. I thought that gifting an extra double duvet to households would help them feel warmth while sitting on the sofa & then by adding the duvet to your bed at night would also offer warmth while they sleep. I have already gifted over five thousand duvets across Surrey & once the charity launches hope to gift many more.
