Small volunteer group meet to pack Covid-19 hygiene packs for the homeless

04/06/2020 


A small group of members gathered in South Melbourne to assemble the homeless hygiene packs to prepare for the distribution in the coming months. The operation was controlled with social distancing, masks and hand sanitiser.

The packs, containing facemasks, anti-bacterial wipes and personal items both protect and limit the transmission of Coronavirus amongst the homeless and wider community and will be distributed with our Coats for the Homeless nationwide.
