Feed Newport launches April Showers Hygiene & Rain Wish List.

COMMUNITY support group Feed Newport CIC has launched its spring and Easter campaigns.

Its April Showers initiative is calling on people to donate toiletries and wet-weather gear, which will then be distributed to the homeless and vulnerable in the city.

Examples of bathroom products being collected include bath towels, travel-size toiletries, shampoo and conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and wash cloths.

Wet-weather gear includes ponchos, raincoats and jackets, umbrellas, sleeping bags, hoodies, and backpacks.

Feed Newport has requested that the toiletries be new and the clothing be either new or in good condition.
