Starting to think how you can make a difference this festive season? IICF presents 3 ways to Volunteer, Give & Make a Difference: 1. Participate in KidsOut Giving Tree or volunteer to pack toy boxes to bring a smile to a child living in refuge. 2. Hold a coat drive with Wrap Up London (and beyond) and make a difference to vulnerable people this winter. 3. Engage colleagues in a festive fundraising campaign in support of IICF. Funds will benefit charities helping people through the cost-of-living crisis. Do something amazing this holiday season! Visit www.iicf.org.uk to learn more. #iicfimpact #volunteer #insurance

It's amazing we got to spend a day volunteering for a great cause at Wrap Up London with the Taboola UK Enterprise team!
🌟 Making a Difference in the Heart of London! 🌟 At Taboola, we are very fortunate to be given a volunteer day so this year we decided to use this incredible opportunity to volunteer with Wrap Up London. Wrap Up London is on a mission to keep those in need warm during the winter months by collecting and distributing coats to vulnerable individuals across the city. Volunteering for this fantastic initiative has been a truly eye-opening and rewarding experience. We sorted through 1000+ coats into women, men and children collections (of all sizes) while knowing these were to reach people who will be filled with gratitude on receiving them. If you wish to donate a warm coat to someone this winter, click the link to find your nearest drop off point: https://lnkd.in/eKe567dB Here are some snaps of us in action...

Do you have any warm, winter coats you no longer need? Drop them off at one of twelve fire stations taking part in Wrap Up London’s campaign, and they’ll be shared amongst front-line charities helping people who face a cold winter. Station Officer Paul Anstey has been the driving force and chief organiser of the collections. He said: “I wanted to set up something that could benefit more vulnerable people in our communities and came across the Wrap Up London campaign and now we continue into our fourth year which is simply amazing. Thank you to everyone who has donated previously and to the firefighters who have volunteered their time to help with the collections.” So pop into any of the fire stations listed below to drop off your spare coats, before 27 November: Acton Clapham Euston Hornchurch Old Kent Road Poplar Shoreditch Sidcup Soho Surbiton Wembley Woodside But if you can’t get to any of those fire stations, there are other locations in London where you can drop off your coats. Just search for ‘Wrap Up London’ to find your nearest.
