Meet the Volunteer
This month we’d like to introduce you to Pamela, and extend a heartfelt thank you to her for the ongoing donation of her exquisite hand knitted rugs.
With the help of her daughter, Janet, Pamela has been creating beautiful rugs for our guests for years. It was a pleasure meeting her and we are honored to have her as part of our Robes community.
Volunteering can come in all shapes and sizes at Robes - if you’d like to find out more, go to the VOLUNTEER section of our website, or email the lovely Hafza - project.officer@robes.org.uk .
Volunteer ‘Thank You’ Event
Thank you to those who attended the volunteer event at Southwark Cathedral, it was lovely to see all your friendly faces and be able to show our appreciation. Rain or shine, you have consistently shown up, ready to contribute your skills and time to support our cause.Your commitment has not only improved lives but has also brought hope and inspiration to those who needed it the most.
For those of you that couldn’t make it, we look forward to seeing you at next years event!
Preparation for Shelter Season
We can’t believe it’s that time again already!
As we eagerly approach the Shelter season, our team at Robes has been working tirelessly to ensure that we are fully prepared to cater to the needs of those experiencing homelessness in and around Southwark and Lambeth.
Thank you to all the venues, team leaders and volunteers for your patience and cooperation. We are incredibly excited for the season ahead and hope you are too.
We still have some gaps to fill after Christmas, in order to have two circuits. If there are any churches (or if you know of any) that could support on Wednesday’s, Thursday’s and Sunday’s, please do get in touch with our Shelter Manager Hafza - project.officer@robes.org.uk
SleepOut 2023
As the Winter / Shelter Season fast approaches, so too does Southwark Cathedral’s Annual SleepOut in aid of Robes.
Robes have been very lucky this year that creative brand agency The Clearing have chosen us to be their Charity of the Year. One of the things they have been helping us with is a brand new look for the SleepOut - you may have seen some of this already, including our fantastic SleepOut logo.
For those of you wanting to participate in the SleepOut, all the information can be found under the “Get Involved” section of our website.
For those wanting to come to the evening’s entertainment for the SleepOut, you can get your tickets now!
A huge thank you to all on the Cathedral SleepOut Committee, who have been working extraordinarily hard to make this year’s event wonderful.
