Crawley Open House Winter Appeal.


We are planning our annual Winter Appeal for The Open House and once again they have asked us if we can provide sets of, a Winter grade Sleeping Bag, Waterproof Cover, Thermal Flask.


This year they expect demand in the Winter months will be even higher due to Covid19. The Open House has limited capacity, which means more and more already hard-pressed people will face sleeping out of doors in wet and cold conditions.


To help, we aim to supply 40 sets of equipment at a total cost of £1000.00


Because of ‘Corona Virus church attendance restrictions’, it is unlikely that Sunday collections will yield sufficient funds.


Therefore, if you would like to help by donating on the following basis, the St Bernard’s SVP will source and deliver the equipment before the cold weather sets in.

  1. One thermal 500 ml Flask £5.00
  2. One sleeping bag with waterproof cover £20.00
  3. Complete set £25.00
