As we reach the end of 2025 we'd like to give an update on our Wrap Up year and express our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported us.
Wrap-up Worthing has again received an amazing number of coats and other items of clothing, we estimate around 1,900, to help the most vulnerable people in our community.
The campaign has grown exponentially over the years, and the charities we partner with know that we will be able to deliver useful warm clothing every Winter to the people they support. The majority of donations this year have gone to SHOUT WSK, Worthing Soup Kitchen, and Broadwater Support Group & Community Hub, both run for the benefit of the local community, helping out those most in need, but other local charities also receive help. They provide drop-off points for public donations as well as places for people in need to access help.
In addition to the companies and organisations who have supported us previously, we have gained a half dozen or so new corporate partners this year and have increased the number of volunteers who help out and collect for us.
Thanks to the support of Southern Railway and Thameslink we again promoted the start of the campaign at Worthing railway station where we received our first donations. We also attended various locations & local events to promote this life saving project, including a language school in Worthing, a large engineering firm, and Friday Prayers at Worthing Masjid, our local Mosque, who have generously supported us for a number of years.
At a visit to a local community carol service another 60+coats, woolies & other items were donated and, fingers crossed, this lovely group will be another partner for us next year. We've also been out collecting with the Worthing Lions Group Santa van, which was great fun, and really got us into the Christmas spirit.
The kindness and generosity of the people of is truly heart-warming and, we are glad to say, has warmed the people that this campaign was set up to help.
If your company or organisation would like to get involved next year you can sign up here.
Thank You, Worthing and see you again in 2026!
