Collecting nappies for refugee mothers

In the recent half term, Joblings collected nappies for one of our House charities, Goods for Good. Joblings have been supporting the Watford-based charity for many years, with ties originally forged by former Housemaster Mr Swallow.

Goods for Good is a not-for-profit that sources basic everyday goods from UK businesses and communities to distribute amongst vulnerable people around the world. So far the company has delivered over two million tonnes of goods to those in need, from asylum seekers and older people to those who have been affected by modern slavery and human trafficking.

Following the success of our winter clothing collection in December, the charity asked us to collect nappies on their behalf. These simple, everyday items are highly sought-after by both new and expecting mothers who arrive in the area as refugees.

We handed over the collection to Goods for Good CEO Rosalind Bluestone, who extended a heartfelt thank you to all Habs students and families who donated.
