Local Winter Appeal

Winter local appeal.

With the colder months upon us, we need your help bringing comfort to those who suffer most in the cold weather.

Support your community

Be part of Uniting's Winter local appeal.

For many of us, the cooler weather signals the need to bring out our winter doonas, turn up the heating or buy a new jacket to stay warm and dry. Sadly, for many people, these simple comforts are out of reach due to the ever-increasing cost of living.

Your help can bring some much-needed warmth to the most vulnerable in the community by providing new or good quality used blankets, doonas, swags, jackets and other winter woollies to distribute to those in need.

There are 2 ways to ensure people in crisis will keep warm this winter.

Drop off your items at your nearest emergency relief centre

Like:

  • Blankets
  • New tents
  • Backpack swags.

Nancy's story

With the rising cost of living, people are facing new hardships every day.

In her mid-30s, Nancy had bravely escaped a violent relationship. Hailing from Iran, she now found herself alone with nowhere to go and no one to turn to.

Fortuitously, Nancy crossed paths with Uniting and she was immediately offered crisis accommodation.

“It was a hard time. I didn’t know where to go,”
